Hi to all,
	Forcast for today was for a chance of thunderstorms in the NE of Victoria.
 There is a bit of Cu up to the NE (over the divide) of Melbourne looking
pretty good.  I thought if they predicted this for the NE then SE NSW would
get a bit too.  Any comments?  

	I also hope Michael's comments were right for us down here in Melbourne -
we've been over a week without a storm (hehehe - only a week).

Andrew McDonald.

     The only current severe thunderstorm advice is for northwest SA but 
     I'll be watching closely for the next 2 hours - so if anything comes 
     out I'll forward it to the list.
     
     Cheers

Apologies if this turns up twice (I sent it using the wrong email account!!)
---------------------------------------------

Actually, there are some interesting clouds developing along the northern
NSW ranges about Wauchope /Taree area, so there might be some action in a
couple of hours.  Shows up quite clearly on the 02:32UTC visual image.

Melbourne is absolutely boringly gorgeous at the moment, small Cu, light
northerly wind, a touch of Ci coming in from the west before tomorrow's
*action*.

Parkes, headed almost easterly direction.

Two interesting lines of storms popping up on the radar - one west
of Ceduna, the other south of Alice Springs. NUllarbor had had
4mm up to 1500. (This has also triggered one of my favourite warnings,
for 'people in SA west of a line from Ceduna to Roxby Downs' - all
20 of them?).

Michael referred to some interest in Gippsland next week on the US
models - no trace of that on either the Bureau, ECMWF or UKMO models,
but all indicate a fairly solid front on Saturday through the south-
east and varying levels of upper-level action in eastern Australia
through next week.

Hi every1,

I just came on-list (10.30 p.m. local) and checked the latest satellite 
shot. There seems to be something organizing just west of the 130E 30S 
line on the NPMOC shot. Is it heading SE or am I going to miss out 
again? Wycheproof would be in a lovely NW/SE line if the front continues 
at the same speed it's been for the last two days! By the way it seems 
to be at the northern limit of the front, not a place I'd normally 
associate with the worst of it! Any thoughts?

Kevin Phyland.

OK Jane, 
	 It's Andrew from the NE suburbs here.  At the exact time I recieved your
message, there was a large Cb with a nice crispy anvil out to the east over
Healsville way.  By 3:40pm it had an overshooting top.  Started to
dissapate around 4:00 and was well to the east.  Looked very impressive but
haven't heard any reports of anything and I missed the news.  I took a
photo of it at about 3:55pm but it looked better and closer earlier.  Don't
doubt anything anyone because there was no real forecast for thunderstorms
here either.
Andrew McDonald.

Hi all,
       Just viewed the 10.30pm forecast and it seems quite promising over
the next 12 hours. I am not getting excited yet as I have had a lot of
experience at missing storms in this state! It should be good news for those
in the Eastern States for later tomorrow and Sunday.
