At Norfolk Island (off the coast of N.S.W.) reported a wave of 1.7m while at Eden (down on the south coast of N.S.W.) a wave of 0.4m was reported, but as it's still early here and with the warning still current there will be more reports. Cheers. |

Here is the eruption from space.Thatks for that. I've seen a smaller version of it, but that one makes it easier to see the shock waves in the atmosphere. Just an incredible amount of energy, released in such a sort period of time. Grant Darwin NT |

0.87m down at Coffs Harbour was recorded here this morning, once the current storm surge was accounted for. Cheers. |
