Just heard from Euan who had to evacuate his father's place at Glenburn which is where we keep some trucks - looks like the house and trucks might have been destroyed, but it may be some time before we can get in.
Huge losses of homes and other buildings in several towns - there are reports of Marysville and nearby Strathewen being almost completely destroyed. Many people, reports say in excess of 40, have been killed.
The worst of it happened after the wind changed direction.
