We have been in Exmouth for a few months now and are loving it, however it seems that this low is going to be a cat 1 cyclone when we wake up . It's still 900kms away ,and having been here before in cyclone season this time everyone is going all out to prepare , as you do.
A couple of mates who have been here almost 18 yrs have gone into big time lock down!!.We are as prepared as we can be except for the fact that the plunge pool in our house is only half built

and the shed isn't clad

.
Oh well, the pool will fill up and my dirt might wash away

.
Swell was up today near the lighthouse but I had to work, faaaark

Tomorrow is looking good for a few hours in the morning , provided the wind plays the game( not holding my breath).
Still wondering what to do with the boat(maybe fill with water and tie down to the carport, the caravan is not so east , might have to head inland to Tom Price if there are no offers of someone elses shed (still on the cards),
Anyone sat through a cat 3 ???
There is talk it coud get to that.
Enough said, we have plenty of food , water and an ample supply of amber fluid and spirits to get us through the next week or so!
As I said, who has been through one of these??? and should I keep my earplugs handy to keep out the noise
