Be Prepared

A near miss with a cyclone (Oswald) happened on Australia Day weekend 2013. Winds were very strong at Waves and most items on balconies were blown away. This included chairs and tables.  a glass balcony panel was shattered.  All from remnants of a cyclone that went ashore north of Bribie Island.

This time we are in the firing line.

 Some Recommended Actions

Either bring all balcony furniture inside  or  Gather furniture items together and tie them to a balcony column with strong rope.

Remove any items hanging on balconies.

Plants should be brought inside, or taken to your parking bay

Ensure your sliding doors and windows are fully closed and latched. This is important as when fully closed, the doors and frames interlock for added strength. Do not leave doors open even a few millimetres. Our doors and windows are built with glass rated for strong winds.
