Having looked into it, we appear to have been basically untouched - Cooktown, in northern QLD is the closest point on the mainland to the quake, and apparently they received waves approx 10-20cm higher than normal.
The warning went right the way down the eastern seaboard, and even onto tassie, so thats one hell of a quake! given as it has been reported now at about 9 or so on the richter scale, i'll be surprised if there isnt a lot more damage than has been reported thus far.
