Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com G'day all, In the Newcastle Herald this morning there is an article about the storms that hit around the Cessnock area yesterday afternoon (30th). There were a few buildings that had there roofs partly torn off and they are describing it as a 'willy willy' as this is what some witnesses saw. To me it sounds like a tornado and just another typical poor report by the media on the subject. Have you heard anything of this Carolyn?

Just beend own town and didn't even hear it as gossip. there was more noise than anything last night and yesterday afternoon. But it did pour about 5pm yesterday. I know it was sounding impressive about 11.30pm, but couldn't make out much then. :-) Other than that it is a beautiful day today, no sign of the storm.

Also known as W32.Badtrans.B at mm and W32.Badtrans at MM, Win32.Badtrans.29020 is a worm spreading via e-mail. The worm replies to all unread messages and attaches itself using a name constructed from three parts. The first part is one of the following strings: fun Humor docs info Sorry_about_yesterday Me_nude Card SETUP stuff YOU_are_FAT! HAMSTER news_doc New_Napster_Site README images Pics The second part is chosen from the following list: MP3 ZIP DOC The virus adds another extension to the attachment and selects it from two possible types: pif scr When a user opens the attachment, the worm copies itself to the Windows System directory as: Kernel32.exe and modifies the registry in order to execute it at the next reboot: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\RunOnce\Kernel32 = kernel32.exe Additionally, Win32.Badtrans.29020 worm drops a 5632-byte file KDLL.DLL in the Windows System directory. Detection for this worm has been added to Computer Associates antivirus solutions. Install the latest relevant update to ensure protection. For more information, please visit our Virus Encyclopedia. Similar to other worms that have recently been spreading in the wild (such as Nimda and Aliz), Badtrans.29020 also exploits a known security exploit in Internet Explorer. When a user views an HTML e-mail carrying the worm, Internet Explorer may launch the attached program executing the Badtrans.29020 code. This is due to the "Incorrect MIME Header" vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 and 5.5.

Let me tell you, by how much sweat I lost in the one hour run, it feels like it would be somewhere close to 18-19 DewPoint atm. Unfortunately the high level cloud seems to have thickened up a little since I left home this morning, but hopefully this will burn away soon and let some serious heating get underway. If I could make a request though, as always I am fairly blind to what is going on as I don't have any net access at work, so could anyone who is monitoring what is going on send me an email if there is some storm activity approaching the Illawarra area. I will be taking every opportunity to cast my eyes skyward today and will hopefully spot it when things start to get interesting, but any updates will be greatly appreciated. Me thinks the works ute will be borrowed today if something really worthwhile pops up. Please send to me work address above, or call me on (02) 4275 6494. Good luck everyone, and hopefully the TDU crew have themselves in position for some monstrous LP supercells that will spawn the stuff dreams are made of. Looking forward to hearing of good news during the day.

Hi guys and gals,

It has begun down here. A nice little cell about to cross the escarpment, with the main area of lightning activity due west of about Wollongong CBD. Can't quite make out what the storm is doing, but I'm guessing the main centre of activity is sliding NNE, but with remains drifting E'ly. A nice looker as it has formed up, a thick mammatus anvil underside which has spread out quite fast to the East and North. It's gonna be a big afternoon.

Andrew Godsman

One of those 4 inch an hour cells passed just 2 km northeast of me (Seven Hills).Appeared there was an intense hail shaft on its southern flank. There was no rotation. Westerly winds prior to and with the storm cells reached about 60 or 70 km/hr but now have dropped and appear to be turning east to southeast..a seabreeze, or has that low pressure system/trough passed over? I think it might have. Barograph rose 4 millibars in a few minutes.
I have recorded only 0.2mm of rain.It seemed the local bird life was enjoying a ride..looked like a flock of ravens at least 1500 feet above the ground..a rare sight...Sun's out now,temp 32 and dewpoint's jumped from 12 to 18.

It seems that it's all over down at Wollongong for a while at least. The cumulous seem to be topping out at a much lower level now than earlier, so maybe a stronger cap has developed. Does radar show anything else forming further behind this line of storms to affect us later today? Or is the southerly buster making it's way up the coast soon?

Hopefully I'll be out of here in time to set up my little pc camera and start a timelapse of any later action. Almost set to place reviews on my web page a la Michael Bath's effort for timelapse sequences of the day.

This morning's sounding out of SSY showed very good lapse rates and good but shallow low-level moisture. The flow field also showed good turning and sufficient shear for supercells. For all LI fans, LI was -6.8, but this number does not account for the lack of moisture depth. Especially close to the coast (best moisture depth) I trust there will be some large hail reports. LCL seems a bit high for those swirly things ATM. The latest (02:32 UTC) VIS shows a NE-SE oriented line of anvils that increase in size the closer the underlying storms are located to the coast. Moisture depth is the only real issue here with a surface low in SE AUS accounting for low-level lift. The dewpoints right along the coastline N of Sydney look pretty good, leading to a very simple chase strategy. 04:20 UTC radar shows a 55+ dBZ cell ~20 km west of Newcastle, another at ~55 km W of Newcastle, and two cells 50-70 km S and SW, respectively. The moisture depth improves towards Bulahdelah (NSW), but I have no shear info. How cold was the outflow from those cells??

Two dead in storm
From AAP
03dec01

TWO people were reported killed and a number of others injured, some by falling trees in severe storms which have swept across Sydney.

Roads were also blocked, power cut to thousands of homes and train lines cut as damaging winds reached 175kph.

Two people were trapped under a fallen tree at Crosslands Reserve on Somerville Road, near Hornsby Heights, in the city's north around 2.40pm, the NRMA CareFlight said.

Ambulance officers later reported the two had been killed, the NRMA Careflight said.

Two children had also suffered minor injuries, apparently in the same incident, it said.

A mother and her baby were injured when a tree hit their car in Queen Street, Campbelltown, south-west of Sydney, an ambulance spokesman said.

A crane was needed to pull the tree off the wreckage and rescue the 25-year-old woman and 18-month-old baby, the spokesman said.

The woman suffered serious injuries, while the baby escaped with only injuries to its arms, he said.

Both have been taken to Liverpool Hospital.

The storm appeared strongest north of Sydney, he said.

"There have been a number of cases in that area where people have had trees fall on them in their car," the spokesman said.

One woman was hit by a tree that toppled onto a church on the Pacific Highway, Hornsby, an ambulance spokesman said.

Also in Hornsby, a man was injured when a shop awning was ripped off its hinges.

Emergency calls were still coming in, the spokesman said.

"We have been stretched but we are able to handle it," he said.

A small child had also been swept into a drain at Cronulla, in Sydney's south, the spokesman said.

"The child is safe, which is remarkable," he said.

Meanwhile, at Luddenham, west of Sydney, a man slipped three or four metres off a roof during the storm, he said.

Fire services reported part of the roof of Hornsby hospital had blown off.

Bureau of Meteorology spokesman Philip King said a line of storms streaked across the Sydney metropolitan area causing winds of up to 175kph.

It only took between about 12.30pm and 2.30pm (AEDT) for the storms to cause their trail of destruction, he said.

"They caused severe down blast winds," he said.

He said the storm came in from the Illawarra area in the south and swept across the metropolitan area, extending as far west as the Blue Mountains.

The storms were now in the Hunter area, but most had moved out to sea.

The storm has affected the overhead cabling and signal systems on CityRail lines and this is expected to cause continued problems with train services.

Services both ways between Sutherland and Helensburgh on the Illawarra-South Coast line, Hornsby and Epping on the northern line, and Sydenham to Glenfield on the East Hills line, will be replaced by bus services and commuters will experience delays of up to 90 minutes today.

The Hornsby-Gordon service will also be replaced by buses, and delays of up to one hour are expected while the Richmond to Mulgrave replacement bus service will run 45 minutes behind regular train schedules both ways.

Regular commuters are urged to call 131 500 or check the cityrail.nsw.gov.au website before leaving work to get details and are urged to consider alternative arrangements.

Energy Australia reported that 50,000 customers were without electricity as a result of the storms.

Those affected were spread over 75 suburbs to Sydney's north and south with the worst affected in Hornsby and along Sydney's northern beaches.

"It seems there have been some pretty destructive winds - we've got reports of powerpoles snapping," a spokesman said.

"It may be quite some time until all of our customers are reconnected and it's very hard at this stage to say when that will be."

Around 1pm I headed out to my favourite lookout at Acron Oval , St Ives where I managed to get some awesome Photos and Video of the storm that passed over the City before our one hit. I have never seen so many "flangs" in my life in Sydney before. Lightning was pulsing easily 6 to 7 times perfectly to the West of the City and then gradually over it. And yes I am very happy to say that I have heaps of Photos including some awesome day time lightning photos which I hope to have developed shortly. Whilst there I managed to see the cell over the city form a spectacular Gust Front/ Wall Cloud .. why Im not sure .. well I wasnt close enough to it and I haven't had a chance to look at the footage yet closely. It was around 130pm or so that I heard a loud crack and look to my West to see a very dark RFB closing in on me... I ran to the car park and witnesses some of the most awesome CG's and instantanious thunder I have heard in ages.... they were striking all round the oval with some awesome Bolts front as far high as I cold look to the ground in front. The Thunder was a deafening Rifle crack boom that was the loudest I had heard in ages.... I then managed to get a better view to the west were I could see the heaviest rain/hail curtain I have seen with alot of low cloud motion being picked up by the hail /rain curtain...I could see straight away that it just had that particular severe look to it and proceeded straight home for safety.. about 2 minutes later it hit with the heaviest hail / rain fall I have seen, but the main thing was the Wind.. as soon as the hail hit the wind hit with a wall of white from the NW, bending and snapping trees all over the place. I sat in the car whilst wave after wave of wind / hail hit until about 10 minutes later it calmed down. The back garden was flooded but most of our trees survived. I then went out for a damage assessment and have found the worst hit areas were Wahroonga, Waitara , Hornsby etc..... a summary of damage includes... - Thousands of trees ripped in half or completely fallen over - Trees have ripped power lines and poles everywhere - Power outages all over that could last a while... ( we got power back this morning) - Cars crushed by trees falling - Houses also crushed in sections by huge Gums falling also. It certainly was a very eerie scene as I surveyed the damage. I can only feel sorrow for those people who have suffered so much damage again after Jan 21 1991 major Storm. This one wasn't as bad as Jan 21 but it would be probably the second worse. BTW - Report from the BOM say that just before the storm hit at Richmond the temp was 40c ... 5 minutes later it was 19c !!!!!!

The Thunder was a > deafening Rifle crack boom that was the loudest I had heard in ages.... Just beware, the "loudness" of thunder is mainly an indication of how close you are to the lightning bolt (combined with how good your hearing is/was). "Loudness" is not an indicator of storm strength. [snip] > particular severe look to it and proceeded straight home for safety.. about > 2 minutes later it hit with the heaviest hail / rain fall I have seen, but > the main thing was the Wind.. [snip] > BTW - Report from the BOM say that just before the storm hit at Richmond the > temp was 40c ... 5 minutes later it was 19c !!!!!! These two things combined explain the mode of convection in Sydney yesterday. With pre-storm temperatures/dewpoints on the order of 35/15, descending raincores aloft lead to major evaporative cooling and the formation of a "blob" of dense, raincooled air aloft. That "blob" quickly comes to the realisation that it is awfully heavy, so it decides to accelerate downwards towards the ground. When it "hits" the ground, it spreads out sideways, and due to its speed it is able to snap some trees. Observations that indicate the above concept are: * initially high-based storms * large initial T/Td spread * _cold_ strong outflow from the storms * large T(before storm)/T(after strom) difference I am not a big fan of large T/Td spreads. They lead to significant melting of large hail (only small hail reaches the ground), and surface-based air parcels need to be lifted a long way before they rise moist adiabatically, which reduces the low-level CAPE significantly (and thus the chance for tubes).

Yesterday we also experienced a storm cell with very impressive lightning, I estimated about 15 lightning strikes coming within 1 kilometre of this house.  I didn't get any photos, I wasn't brave enough to even go near the windows. 
 What I would like to know is this. 
Twice now we have witnessed lightning strikes really close to the house and not heard any thunder.  The first time was a few weeks ago when we saw a lightning bolt running horizontally past our house only to strike the front yard of a house on the other side of the road.  Yesterday the same thing happened again, large lightning bolt [though not horizontal this time] and no thunder, otherwise each other strike had the most impressive thunder we have heard for many years.
At Franklins the Back Dock Receiver was standing just inside the door watching the storm and he told Adam that he had just seen an huge lightning bolt strike the carpark in Bungan Lane and that he also heard no thunder.  Can anyone explain this lack of thunder?
 
Otherwise we had two very brief, less than 1 minute, showers of rice size hail, at 3.08 pm and 3.15 pm, and 2.5 mm of rain.
 
Mona Vale Road was blocked by fallen trees near Bonds Nursery for several hours
Betta Fire Protection in Brookvale lost the front wall from a two storey building
Barriers around a building site in Narrabeen were left leaning towards the traffic
Mona Vale Hospital had to use their back up power while the power was off  -  ours was off from 2.30pm to 7.15pm
Wakehurst Parkway blocked in several places by trees
All the traffic signals in this area were blacked out for several hours
Truman Ave Cromer had all wires down
Numerous wires down in the suburbs of Cromer, Wheeler Heights, Belrose and Terry Hills
At on stage there were 130 jobs that hadn't even been called yet and late last night the crews were still working to remove trees and wires from back streets.

Similar to yesterday, the best convection should hug the coast. Convection should extend inland to the NW with increasingly higher bases away from the coast. The primary severe mode should again be strong outflow. I am not sure how far N the activity will spread, but I don't expect QLD to see much of it. Any other opinions?

Hi,
 
I am warning to you all that last Clyve Herbert email was a virus infection with empty msg body and attachment. It was infected with W32.Badtrans.B at mm. Please do NOT open it. It was subject of Severe thunderstorms hit Adelaide. I didn't know this email was a virus, when I was opened it, it was empty, even attachment was empty but it did saved it into Document directory. While Kdll.dll and KERNEL32.EXE was saved into C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32. When this activate itself, it send the log file into keystroke log. So when I or someone press any key on keyboard, then virus start to spread it all over the hard drive and damaged the programs. This Norton Antivirus did not updated the definition till a week later. So I updated it and then it finally detected on one of clyve email and it did quarantine it till it has been deleted. So I did the full scan, found 3, one repaired, 2 couldn't, could not quarantine it, could not deleted it, still infected. NAV kept popping up while I press keystroke as NAV denied the access every time. So I got to NAV website, got all manual removal detail, reboot to safe mode, scan it over again, it did quarantine these at last, deleted it, then deleted kernel KERNEL32.exe off the registry. Now its clean again. So was it Adam sent virus email to Clyve by mistake?
 
So please make sure you didn't receieved any kind of Adam or Clyve email with that subject on Clyve email. If you have received it, please delete it. If you have been opening the Clyve email or Adam email with virus infection, then its too late, you need to get instruction for manual removal from NAV to get it all removed or other website antivirus company. Hope you do have your own antivirus scanner.

G'day all,
 
I'll make it very simple on all members of this group who are worried about email attachments from me. Basically, anyone who knows me knows i send very few email attachments, if any. This virus is a pain in the butt, i have so far got the virus back 6 times and counting.
 
My computer is clean at this time and i am not expecting to have virus problems again. I find it funny that ppl on weather may have got the virus from me, as i only send emails to auswx, not individuals. I am sorry for any concerns.
 
Hoping for storms this arvo, but will have to wait
 
Cheers
 
Adam

Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com Hi Hector, I remember observing the shelf cloud of this storm in Newcastle. I have managed to obtain a bit more details on this storm and I have found that this report of a 'willy willy' was actaully in Rutherford, not in Cessnock which I originally thought. This storm occurred on Friday, 30th of November.
