Brisbane storm (Cyclone) from hell! 16th November 2008

"Bouts of extreme roughness"
HUGE storm - Brisbane 16th November 2008 - Reported as 'worst storm for 25 years'. Many houses totally destroyed "within seconds, not minutes".225,000+ homes lost power. The author of this video was without power for over 24 hours.

UPDATE: I sought a reminder from a mate; it must've been a cyclone as (from above) it was swirling clockwise.

A Hurricane/Typhoon (same thing different name) in northern hemisphere rotates anticlockwise, (seen from above).
