This is the Port Victoria jetty. It will get worse as the wind has not lost it's intensity.
Check how big this thing is:

Read a post today , can't remember which one but as mentioned the northern states can cop much worse and there infrastructure doesn't drop out like it does down south. Maybee built to withstand it? No idea but makes ya wonder. Not looking forward to summer with stinking hot days and all power available directed to the cities.all us country folk can fend for ourselves.

Surprisingly we in the south east of SA have missed out on the worst of this low so far, usually it's us that ends up copping all the Antarctic cold air and flooding rains.
Glad I had purchased many portable power banks over the course of the year, really came in handy last night with the power outage.
I enjoyed a candle lit dinner for two with condensed mushroom soup and bread, glad we had gas still.
The power did eventually come back on around 1am, just in time before everything defrosted in our freezer. The supermarkets weren't so lucky, they lost a fair bit of stock judging by the empty refrigerated shelves this afternoon.

We have a good friend in Coober Pedy and they the town has it's own Geny so they are OK.
Just been out for RFA's (requests for assistance) for the last 5 hrs, flooding, trees down and structural damage, it's a bloody mess out there.

Did you see what is behind it. And there is another front behind that one.

Never seen that site before. Not looking good.

I did put that site up a while ago but Jaros put that last link up to Null School
Btw if you click on a point it will show you what the wind speed is at that point. You can also check temp and wind sheer at certain hights above sea level. It's a good indicator of weather. Not just AU you can check the whole globe

That's funny
.To be fair though this storm is or was huge and cyclone strength. There are still trees falling over all over the state. TV towers at Moonta going down. Jetties wrecked flooding every where and more rain coming next week.
The emergency services are being stretched to the limit. This isn't your everyday thunderstorm.
