The biggest storm to hit Perth in 50 years has caused massive destruction across the city.
Within a couple of hours of the storm passing through, more than 150,000 homes were without power, residents flooded Fire and Emergency Services helplines desperate for assistance, roads were underwater and traffic in some areas was at a standstill.
Almost 100 sets of traffic lights were out and planes were stranded at both Perth airports.
The State Emergency Service has had reports of structural damage to several major hospitals and aged care facilities, and these cases were the priority.
A landslide through Kings Park down to Mounts Bay Road has buried and crushed two cars, with police unable to confirm whether there were any occupants inside. The cars were in parking bays, so police are hopeful nobody was inside.
Comment: So this is a peer review of the way the UEA scientists did climate change peer review. It will be extraordinary if this review ends up anything other than a giant whitewash, but we can hope that the panel members value integrity over grants.
