It's March 29th, from your city to your ears. This is Adelaide News today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. Cyclone Narell slammed it to Western Australia's Gas Coin region as a Category 4 storm, hitting hard about 1,200 km. North of Perth, the Outback Cattle Station and Taurus spot, Boulara Station, stayed took the worst of it, with massive flooding from a huge tidal surge that pushed water. Head up to rooftops and even the highway. Owners Edwina and Tim Shawcross shared wild videos on social media, showing staff paddling around on kayaks, tinnies, and stand-up paddleboards, just two. Check the damage. Flood waters trap cattle and swept through buildings, leaving cars ruined and animals scrambling for cover like one goat hiding in a vehicle. The Shawcross is called it unprecedented, with Edwina getting emotional about the loss. Someone on site lost personal stuff, but the 15 staff who, as they, stayed pooled together

like champs. They evacuated some workers last minute to a safer station, and now the place is shut down while they tally up the widespread wreckage. Meanwhile, up in Exmouth, wind gusts hit 250 km per hour, knocking out power and water, though crews are restoring them now. The local airport got obliterated, and the whole area is reeling from the chaos. The Lares team is leaning on amazing support from locals, travelers, and nearby stations as they grind through recovery. But that outbacked spirit is already bouncing back.
