Day Thirty

Day 30 - Homeward Bound due to Cyclone Dylan bringing flooding, storm surge and wind to Townsville....

This is pretty disappointing as I was really really looking forward to speaking to Dr Brian Lewthwaite in person. All academics from Canada, New Zealand and Australia speak very highly of him... ah well can't help the weather. It was better to stay safe and also not be in the way!

The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) is warning people to batten down as the storm will likely bring heavy rain and winds up to 120km/h.
"Currently we're anticipating the cyclone crossing the coast somewhere in the Townsville region, granting that it is a fairly long way out at the moment," BOM Queensland regional director Rob Webb said.

Townsville flights cancelled
