Yeah, it's old, but still funny. If you don't know where Broadmeadows is, here's an extract from wikipedia:

During the 1970s and 1980s Broadmeadows had a reputation for boisterous youth: the Broady Boys rode the trains and daubed graffiti proclaiming that they "rule, O.K." The area was also known as a locus of the Sharpie movement. By the 1990s the social disadvantage aspect of Broadmeadows had lessened and there was a catch-up of some of the facilities long denied, though the area's reputation is still tainted for many.

Hurricane Shazza strikes Broadmeadows

A major cyclone (Hurricane Shazza) and an earthquake measuring 5.8 on the Richter scale hit Broadmeadows in the early hours of Thursday15 Feb. 2007 - with its epicentre in Johnstone Street, Broadmeadows.Victims were seen wandering around aimlessly, muttering "Faaackinell".

The cyclone decimated the area causing approximately $30.00 worth of damage.

Three areas of historic burnt out cars were disturbed. Many locals were woken well before their centrelink cheques arrived. The Hume Leader reported that hundreds of residents were confused andbewildered and were still trying to come to terms with the fact thatsomething interesting had happened in Broady.

One resident - Tracy Sharon Smith, a 15-year-old mother of 3 said "Itwas such a shock, my little Chardonnay-Mercedes came running into mybedroom crying. My youngest two, Kevin and Jason slept through it all."

Apparently looting, muggings and car crime were unaffected and carried on as normal.

The Australian Red Cross has so far managed to ship 4,000 crates ofBacardi-Breezers to the area to help the stricken locals. Rescueworkers are still searching through the rubble and have found large quantities of personal belongings, including Health Care Cards, jewellery from Kleins and Bone China from Big W.
