It certainly did wreak havoc. Poor Dad was home at the time, it was still dark, but he was in a bedroom downstairs. It was the top floor that copped it. The attached image was taken several days after the event and believe it or not, quite a lot of cleaning up had occurred.

Perth seems to be having an increasing number of tornadoes. Winter temperature are really quite mild. I'd say VERY mild by your starndards. At a guess I'd say our winter maximums are approximately 17 degrees Celsius (roughly 64 degrees Farenheit) and minimums of between zero degrees Celsius (33 degrees Farenheit) although this only occurs a dozen or so times a winter. Average winter minumums would be between 4 & 10 degrees Celsius (38 - 50 degrees Farenheit). However, we have extremely hot, dry summers.

Don't know your pianist friend, Katie. Perth's pretty big now. I think over a million people sprawled out over a large area.
