There were quite different individual responses. For example: * Ignoring the warnings - many residents chose this option because there had been previous threats of cyclones, yet Darwin had not actually been hit by a cyclone for many years, and it was also Christmas Eve - surely they wouldn't be hit at Christmas?! * Heeding the warnings and taking the suggested precautions for securing items and preparing for loss of services, e.g. water, electricity. * Evacuating early, before the cyclone hit.
