URGENT - Cyclone Yasi - Advice for kids and families needed!
Cyclone Yasi is approaching a highly populated area of NE Australia and will be a category 5 cyclone with storm surge of up to 7 meters! I am adding advice to my twitter feed: http://twitter.com/edu4drr. If you have advice that should be shared for this time and the aftermath, please send to me at edu4drr and I will post immediately on the twitter feed! This is what our network should do!
Thank you
