Where and when are the best storms?
« on: 23 January 2009, 04:21:50 AM »
Heja,

I'd like to know where and when severe storms occur....in average of course. Is there a diagram that shows the spacial distribution of severe thunderstorms each month for Australia?
My concern is to find out if and where thunderstorms occur in autumn and winter.

Before I leave Australia I'd like to see more of it than Darwin. It would be great if I could connect that with some thunderstorms. I know there is no garantee (as I experience in Darwin atm  >:(  :'(), but as it is not just about the storms....it won't be a drama. But I'd like to get another chance for storms in May or early June.

Would be great if anyone could help me.

my smilies don't work :(

Given the severe storms of the eastern side of things perhaps members could shed some experienced light on Renate's request.  I was not able to help her, but there seems to be a corridor of sorts in NSW which attracts a lot of supercell activity?  I know that you guys obviously have all these years chasing under your belt in lots of areas which are more prone to severe weather.
