and anyways, if Bear Grylls can suck the life blood out of elephant dung......
camel dung has to be better :lol: 8.( :skull:
just taking a moment to reflect on the amount of life lost & damage done, in the cyclone that hit Mozambique, Zimbabwe & some surrounding areas couple of days ago. Sadly they aren't as well equipped to cope as we are.

Too early to tell right now. It's been a big wet and as you can see, it's not over yet. Best to work out your plan closer to the date and from my own experience of travelling in the far north after a big wet, if plan A doesn't work then plan B aint gunna cut it also, unless you head in a completely different direction.

batten down the hatches & stay safe if you're in line for it
Ded ,
What weather app are you using??
It is more detailed than the BOM map
Hope some of that rain filters down south.
Namjim that is from the BoM. you just have to dig a bit into the various settings/views. actually those pics were snipped from the BOM's 'Met Eye'
start here http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/meteye/
I dont use 'APPS' as ive noticed in the past a couple have a tendency to put their own interpretation over the data
