Global Weather Event Causing Chaos
As Eastern America is buried under the "Monster Blizzard", a deep winter super storm, Austrailia is getting slammed with what is being called their worst cyclone ever to hit. Cyclone Yasi. This is a massive cyclone hitting an already flood ravaged area.
In America it is being reported that the website, Weather.gov, is receiving more than five times its usual web traffic.
"We're looking at unprecedented demand from this event," National Weather Service spokesman Curtis Carey told CBS News. "We're talking 15 to 20 million hits an hour on our web servers. That's far beyond anything we've seen in the past."
What Cyclone Yasi would look like IF over North America.
