00:02A first glimpse of ex-tropical cyclone Norell's destructive path.
00:06Yesterday I mentioned there were four homes that have been impacted by ex-tropical cyclone Norell, it's now five.
00:13On Groot Island, the severe storm bringing down trees onto homes.
00:17At Noombawa, a similar story.
00:20Authorities today getting the lay of the land.
00:23On a more positive note, we are now starting to return the people from Noombawa community home.
00:29The aftermath still being felt right across the territory.
00:34Boil water alerts spanning from south of Darwin down to the Daly River region and through to East Arnhem Land.
00:41Hundreds remaining without power in Dundee, Noombawa and the Adelaide River.
00:47Blood waters continuing to cut off roads, including part of the NT's arterial corridor, the Stewart Highway.
00:55With the top end facing back to back natural disasters, it's likely going to be months before all flood affected
01:01residents can return home.
01:03Faced with a mammoth task ahead, authorities have called in reinforcements from interstate to help mop up the mess.
01:10I can report that the NT emergency service received 60 calls for assistance since early Saturday morning.
01:17And that local and interstate volunteers are standing by as we speak.
01:21And with wet season not over yet, they'll have their work cut out for them.
01:26We have a tropical low that is likely to form in the Arafura Sea later this week or over the
01:31weekend.
01:32There's still a very low chance that that will form into a cyclone.
01:35A possibility many are hoping will not eventuate.
01:39A possibility can return, so...
01:39...it is going to be a small and compact block diet.
01:40A possibility can return to the Kello-Domo-Domo-Domo-Domo-Domo-Domo-Domo-Domo-Domo-Domo.
01:40A possibility of a complete self-righteousness of the population being discussed in a small and small and huge amount
01:40of the fact that we've made a lot with the wind of the conditions.
01:41We'll have the wind in the wind.
01:41causing the wind in the wind.
01:41Now, I'm hoping to get them away from the wind.
