Having lost a home personally, I am well and truly aware of what those people are going through. It changes you on the inside, forever…..but I was only 1 house in the neighbourhood so everyone pitched in and helped [bless all their lovely souls too]….I cannot even fathom what having a whole neighboured destroyed would be like….
In the late 70’s, [1978 I think] Perth had a cyclone, not like we get in the North where cyclones are the same as the usa’s hurricanes and equally as destructive, but since hardly anyone lives up in our North West hellhole not many people are affected like the usa, in other words, only thousands maybe required to evacuate instead of millions….plus buildings and homes are prepared for the most part…Ours was called Cyclone Alby and it was funny actually because 6 months after the cyclone, all one side of trees were brown from wind burn….people say the wind cannot burn and I am here to tell you it does….the constant friction burns them…
