Victoria. In the Strzelecki Ranges. Lost phone reception just after this. Just managed to source a generator and starlink just paid for itself.

Probably half of the gum trees around town are gone. Our town is surrounded by bush.. Dozens of houses lost entire roofs, maybe hundreds with damage. Power lines everywhere. Probably no power for a week.

1 fatality that we know of, poor farmer got hit by debris whilst herding his cattle.

No drinking water, no fuel, no phone reception.

But dozens of bloody legends just cracking on, clearing roads, helping each other out.
