It seems like we're lucky. It was a category 4 cyclone when it approached us, but is back to 1 now, and most importantly, we are likely to be spared of the worst part of the cyclone. Other parts of the country did get the full blow though. If the heavy rains continue for long, they can be problematic though. Already, we can hardly get in and out of the house because the water is knee deep on the street, but if the water keeps piling up, streets and bridges are likely to give in. River beds that are normally dry turn into wild streams. And here in the city, people have built houses and commercial centres in them... that will most likely cause some serious damage. Our house is safe in a higher area.
Some real port weather!
