Interesting to see the news broadcast coverage of the cylcone mentioning shortwave radio frequencies, as when the storm hits it probably bring down radio/mobile towers for serveral hundred km's.. Good to remind people that there will be times like this, and shortwave makes the distance in times of emergency, and it ain't dead, specially when the info needs to get out there. Not forgetting the Amateur radio operators that will spur into action as maybe the only form of communication in and out of the affected areas(never forget them. its times like this that they shine)
