A more extended thought in memory of the Australian nation’s response to the devastation from Tracy - a truly national “Christmas present” to the people of Darwin from the rest of us, @flemingrob.bsky.social, given gladly in support. #CycloneTracy #auspol

A brief thought in memory of the events of 50 years ago, when Cyclone Tracy - the most compacted cyclone recorded in Australian history, made landfall on Christmas Eve 1974.

Tracy landed near Darwin destroying 80% of buildings, causing $800m damages & leaving 20k of its 49k population homeless.

I am a survivor of Cyclone Tracy. My family lost our home and it changed our lives forever. I've thought about whether I wanted to post about the Cyclone Tracy 50th anniversary this Christmas. I have mixed feelings about it and all the media coverage. #cyclonetracy #NT #Australia #1974

Thinking of all the people impacted by #CycloneTracy as we head towards Christmas. When I was in Darwin in the 80s, the date 25 December was a solemn day of remembrance.

Good to see the program on ABC re the 50-year anniversary of #CycloneTracy. But why no mention of the Darwin Reconstruction Authority or Alan Stretton? #abc730
