Im just posting an update here of what I have been told today,
Spoke to my gf this morning and the rain was lashing down , very loud................she said all was ok , they got some supplies in yesterday, kids were off school. Also her relative in Isabella was ok as well.
Received a txt 4.30pm UK time ......she wrote that the power was down , but still all were ok and not to worry.
Dont know if anyone has any further updates
