Personally we are some 5 hours or so southwest of the area it is expected to cross ... please pray for the safety of the many people about to be affected by this intense storm - we are bunkering down now ...
    Thoughts and prayers are with the folks there. I have a pen pal there that lives on the island of Tasmania, not sure if that is anywhere near where this is headed. Stay safe.

    Sending prayers to you and for your country. Thankfully there are modern weather forecasters that can get warnings out. God bless.
