Our fence just got wiped off and it was a very strong one. Also I can see the opposite neighbour's fence is gone.
We are living in Glendowie, Auckland

I hope the house stays together whole night. They say the wind will only ease tomorrow during the day.

The wind took two bikers down on Harbour Bridge not long ago. What a crazy day.




I is a kollege stoodent. Bee nice.

Lots of tree damage around here. Relatively high amounts of damage (mostly trees and road signs) in Auckland CBD as well.

Sigh. Can't remember the last time we had a decent blow here in Wellington.
