mdlbear...doesn't mean there's nothing to worry about. Looks as though the Southern Hemisphere is having its own run-in with global warming this week.
Severe Tropical Cyclone Monica is a category 5 cyclone currently heading west just above northern Australia. It is likely the most intense storm ever recorded in the southern hemisphere, and some pressure readings indicate it could beat Super Typhoon Tip for strongest recorded storm of all time.
The predicted tracking map has it hitting the city of Darwin head-on, within 24 hours. ANZAC Day services in Darwin have all been cancelled.
