I’m a big believer of ying and yang… you know the balance of life, for everything bad there is something good and all that malarkey… well you know all the fab weather we’ve been having… I can now wipe that smug little grin off my face as we have blinking cyclone heading our way this weekend - eeek!
Well that’s totally scuppered our weekend plans of heading on up to the Bay of Islands for a long sunny weekend swimming with dolphins, but the weather ain’t going to play along. Looking at the local news it seems that they are treating it quite seriously…
OK – I’m not in the slight bit concerned that most of the walls in our flat are wall to wall glass, oh no.
Pub Quiz Fact: What’s the difference between a hurricane and a cyclone and tornado? None - they are all the same, however we just use different names for these storms depending where in the world they take place. In the Atlantic and Northeast Pacific, the term “hurricane” is used. The same type of disturbance in the Northwest Pacific is called a “typhoon” and “cyclones” occur in the South Pacific and Indian Ocean.
Post Cyclone Lusi.... should be noted that while we were all huddled in our apartment rescuing the furniture flying around outside by the pool the rest of the population seems to be down Takapuna Beach not to turn down the opportunity of the surf, I tell you these New Zealanders are hard core!
