Mt Dandenong storms - 9/6/21

[@rhysnickell2581]

I'm still in shock by the magnitude of these storms and the effect it's had on a lot of people. I can't stop thinking about it even two months later. I remember the moment the power went out and not knowing how much longer it would be out for. I was laying in bed on the verge of tears just scared about what could happen. School was canceled due to building damage, we lost all internet, and I couldn't engage in remote learning. To get anywhere we had to drive over down powerlines. '9/6/21' will forever be engraved in my head.

Thanks for this video Vaughan, terrible storm that night,so many homes destroyed, thanks to all the Emergency people including Police,Fire,SES,and volunteers. Without these wonderful people, many will be still have problems with cleaning up.

Hey Vaughan, I'm a student Filmmaker at SAE Melbourne currently involved in a Documentary about the Helmeted Honeyeater. We are interested in having a segment about the potential effects of the recent storms on the Honeyeater's Habitat, and was wondering if we could get your permission to use some your great Drone footage of the aftermath? Cheers, Louis

Hi Louis, yes, I would be happy for you to use the footage for your documentary. Good luck with it.
