Cyclone Glenda came ashore south of Dampier on Thursday 30 March  2006, it appeared that the eye

  of Glenda passed over the highway near the Fortescue Roadhouse. Flash floods made it difficult to intercept

the centre of the cyclone as the road was cut by severe flooding in more than 100 places.

Winds of 200k + made visibility almost non existant.. updates by sat phone.
