So did everyone survive the big storms that hit Perth yesterday? I heard on the news we had something like 50mm of rain.

Quite a bit of damage done on the Rockingham foreshore....broken windows and roofs blown off!!

Did'nt get away completely undamaged at deviant castle...about 10pm last night there was a flash and an almighty crack and the power went out. Power was restored at about 4am today. Turned the TV and surround sound system on this morning to be greeted by lots of fizzing, crackling, popping speakers and blue smoke!!! Take it thats fooked then. Trying to claim on the insurance.

Wow, living near there i knew it was bad, but not that bad!

I was swimming at Aqua Jetty with my 3 year old on Saturday morning. The lights went out but that was it.

The only thing damaged was his pants as near on s**t himself with the thunder.

No damage here but the creek (Woodlupine brook) was a brown river for the day. I was going to the track but when I went outside at 11am I couldn't even see the house across the road, so didn't bother.
