    My STRONGEST Tropical Storm / Cyclone ever 200 MPH WINDS
    Worst Hurricane season will be just like this! Catastrophic hurricane.
    Just like Hurricane Ian, Tropical storm Frank, Storm Eunice, Ida, Hurricane Katrina, Typhoon Minduella, Tropical Cyclone Gulab worst on record ever! If you watch storm chasers chasing extreme tornados you will like this.
    Cyclone Debbie a category 4 severe Tropical Cyclone crossed the Queensland Coastline . This weather system was one of the most destructive Cyclones to ever hit the Whitsunday area, the area that includes Whitsunday Islands, Proserpine, Bowen, Collinsville and Mackay. Cyclone Debbie caused havoc with winds in excess of 263km/h at the peak of the ordeal.
    Winds like these are very destructive and will leave over 65,000 homes without power, some for months. I survived the cyclone by hiding under a very sturdy coffee table that I built myself over 20 years ago. Many houses weren’t as lucky as I was, despite receiving $11,000 worth of damage, I feel lucky to have only sustained that. Some houses especially in Shute Harbour and on Hamilton Island are completely destroyed. I wouldn't want to be camping in a storm.

    Hard to believe that no windows were broken - I suspect that being among a dense grove of trees helped a lot. Since they mostly continued to stand, they would've cut down on the wind velocity just above ground level due to friction.

      Hi Lilem, My thoughts will be with you. Be vary cautious of glass and stay away from windows. If you have large old trees near you, consider moving away inside your house or flat. Keep one window ajar on the downwind side. Make sure you have some tinned food and fill up water bottles. Candles are a good idea too, and a book. I hope Eunice passes without too much drama. P.S. You seem kind, maybe your RUclips handle isn't justified. 😉

    But the trees! It looked like a bomb dropped on some neighbours, and there's even a roofless house in the middle of town that's been abandoned since, still with the furniture and everything. Surprised a bunch of kids haven't set it on fire yet!

      @@Vector_Ze Trees aren't generally maintained or removed for a once in a lifetime event. They're removed or maintained when they get too close / overhang a property or have unsafe branches (e.g. from Beech trees which can drop at any time). To not maintain / trim or remove unsafe trees through pure ignorance or denial of the potential danger would be negligent at best and fatal at worst.
      If you have large trees so near the house and fail to ensure their safety having one fall onto the house and crush it will most definitely be a once in a lifetime event for anyone under it when it falls.
      Last year a small child was killed by a falling branch at a local school here where a huge overhanging tree limb was not removed despite concerns being raised about it being over the playground. The limb dropped in the middle of Summer when there was no wind and no warning so to suggest that avoiding that sort of tragedy by managing or removing trees is 'absurd' is ignorance at the highest level.
      You have the right to neglect your property if you want to but when an unmaintained tree destroys the house or kills someone there's only one way to point the finger.

      No company Australia wide is going to insure people living in Cyclone prone Qld, NT or WA without making them PAY through the nose.
      Many home owners up there can't afford the premium for Cyclone-coverage.
      Why do you think those who can afford to do so make their homes Cyclone-proof?
      Even Cyclone-proof homes can be no match against some of our worst. I remember another cyclone back in 1995/1996 also named Debbie which didn't do much. The "Debbie" that hit Qld back in March was strong - as strong and easily as big as what Cyclone Larry was and Larry had a considerable knock-on effect for the rest of us, even down here in the south. Larry also managed to destroy Cyclone-proof houses.

    man, glad you survived! Must have been very hectic. I've been watching all this closely as my sailboat is moored at Bowen and it looked like Debbie would hit directly there. A question though, I've heard a few people say they have no house insurance, why is this? It looks like you have a beautiful house, why would you not insure it, specially when you live in a region that can get pelted with bad weather. Thats not a criticism, I'm just wondering if there's a reason like is insurance super expensive or hard to get in the Whitsunday region?
