It's wild in Sydney tonight with massive storms, flooding, and gale force winds. It's the first time in a long time I've actually been scared of a storm. That might have something to do with the huge branch that came whipping down the street, to the accompaniment of car alarms and sirens, and have it smash into the bars on my living room window. Thank Chuck for the bars or it would have come crashing through the glass. Before I had the chance to run in and completely close my bedroom window, the wind blew a painting off the wall and knocked down everything on the dresser. Poor Pixel freaked out so bad I almost had to peel her off the ceiling.

There are trees and powerlines down all over the city, and in the nearby Blue Mountains, the town of Blackheath is blanketed in snow...and it's Spring. Hey, [livejournal.com profile] meus_venator, still want to come to Aus for a vacation? ;)

Here's what's happening around my hometown. PS: Now I have proof that Miley Cyrus is the antichrist - she turns up in Sydney and this shit happens...

Ooohh, that doesn't look good, not at all. Better stay in the house, keep safe. Hope the storm moves away soon.

I didn't know you were from Sydney. Was in Australia 2011, probably the typical tourist route. Sydney, Blue Mountains, Ayers Rock, Outback, Alice Springs, Great Barrier Reef. It was beautiful, I love Australia. We had good weather the whole three weeks. Seeing the pics now from Sydney is a little terrifying.

Australia is a beautiful place but we have some pretty terrifying things as well - massive droughts, ridiculous storms, and lots of very dangerous critters. But for the most part it's great, I really wouldn't want to live anywhere else :)
