Blair & all,
 
I noticed that Rutherglen got down to -4.1C at 7am this morning & then warmed <g> to -3.5C at 8am, while at 8am Mt Hotham was
-0.7C.
 
Any records broken last night? Wonder what winter will be like if this is **only** autumn........(well just)

Hi Michael, Trust me - plenty of heaters up here!!! The main thing I think is the moisture (or lack of) in winter. Even though we're a fair distance north, the dry air means minimums can really drop, especially with the SW'ly winds. Daytime temps are normally in the low 20s...that's the main thing, we tend to get a little warmer than say Sydney during the day. Night time it is similar, or at times even colder. But Obs Hill does have a significant heat island effect, although the Brisbane CBD also seems to have a heat island effect (but it's an inconsistent effect...I still think it's a dodgy site!) The Brisbane AP got down to 5C last night, I got down to 5.3C myself. 5C also at Archerfield (southern suburbs), and 1C at Amberley <-1C grass temp>, and is located on the far western fringes. Logan City was 6C and is also on the south side. The CBD only got down to 8C though...I have a feeling the 5 and 6 degree temps recorded in most areas are probably more reliable than the CBD temp. None the less - still awfully cold! You're right though...the Brisbane AP is capable of lower extremes...I think that's a combination of decreased moisture in Brisbane during winter and the heat island effect at Obs Hill.

Hey Ya'll:
        I just figured out that if you convert Mena's DEGREES of Lat./Lon. into DEGREES CELSIUS, Mena's new location would be:
        1.1DEG NORTH by 34.4 DEG WEST,
  Which would put us in the Atlantic Ocean, about midway between South America and Africa.
         HMMMM.....I think I like DEGREES of Lat./Lon. BETTER!

Re: John Graham:
       Hello to you: WOW!! What a website!! I'va always wondered what it would be like to live on the ocean(beachfront home,etc.) I also (of course) greatly enjoyed the NSW weather Obs., the River Level page, and the AFL page. ESPN used to show AFL games, but not in the last few years. The last Grand Final that I saw was when the West Coast Eagles won the premiership. I also saw "Lethal" Leigh Mathews' final game. For me, one of the interesting things about watching foreign sports events(soccer, AFL, rugby) is to see the advertising banners in the background. I remember seeing AFL games, and in the background I'd see:"Four-n-Twenty Pies", "Hard Yakka", "...anyhow have a Winfield's", ..."any tougher, they'd rust" etc. I think AFL players are the TRUE athletes., playing so rough without pads/protection of any kind; much less running flatout for an hour-and-a-half.

Hey,Hey Everyone:
         In Mena there are 4 bank clocks that indicate time and temperature. 2 of those clocks are no more than about 75 YDS.(68.5m) apart, but on most days(like today) their temps. were 5F different from each other(more on some days). I was wondering what would cause this? I don't know where the temp. sensors are.  P.S. I forgot to mention that I also love Steve Irwin--the Crocodile Man. I greatly enjoy his Crocodile Hunt program, I also enjoyed his "The World's 10 Deadliest Snakes" and "Up Over Down Under" TV shows. We even have a parody of his voice on local radio in an anti-litter commercial. I think he (and Paul Hogan) are great ambassadors for Australia. (Too bad he had to go all the way to the US to find a wife). By the way, who is the Wizard of Oz? What is Victoria's Secret? Have you been Waltzing With Matilda?(LOL!!)

That should answer your question about global warming, Arky. GW is now in the domain of stand-up comedy. The nation's leading forecasters cannot warn until it is too late of devastating frosts, floods, droughts, cold snaps, hail and earthquakes and yet they somehow feel qualified to comment on weather and climate 50 or 60 years ahead. That this defies logic seems to escape them.

I've been getting a number of errors from my outdoor temp/humidity sensor displayed on my WM-918 wx station monitor giving me a " - - - - " reading. I bought the wx station about 3 weeks ago from DSE & it has been running fine till a few days ago when the errors started.
I checked all my connections & everything seems fine. I was starting to think I had bought myself a lemon & was going to take it back when I came across this bit of info at  http://www.weatherwatchers.org/wxstation/WX-200/faq/ & discovered that my problem is not a isolated one!
 
Has anybody else on this list who owns a WM-918 / WX-200 / Huger (all 3 are the same) have/had any problems (or aware of) with their Wx's?

Surprising temperature wise it is very similar to what I would expect in Novemeber ( same seasonal month ) for inland areas at the same latitude here. Although I expect that most Eastern Australia sites to have a High well over 90F on at least one day.
 
On the coast however were I live ( also at 34 ' ) , the ocean keep the averages less extreme, in the several years I took data my November had an average max of 23.2C, and a minimum of 15.1C. The lowest ever recorded in the several years was 10C. But that was 1km from the ocean.
 
Rainfall is a different matter. November is a hit or miss month here. My average was 99mm, but one good year corrupts the figures a little.

The extremes over just a handful of kilometres has been notable. Jervis Bay for example scored 118mm, whilst nearby Greenwell Point scores only 29mm. Less extreme but still significant is Nelson Bay with 84mm, whilst Newcastle of the other end of the Stockton Bight scored 42mm, and Williamtown just a short drive from Nelson Bay did not even make 40mm. Mind you the Newcastle totals will have taken a battering over the last 24 hours ( which is not included ). I had to travel to Nowra on Friday morning and even then the tip of Jervis Bay was under showers whilst the sun shone elsewhere.

Michael Thompson: I suppose our similarities are due to the proximity of the ocean to you, with our altitude having the like effect on us.

Surprising temperature wise it is very similar to what I would expect in Novemeber ( same seasonal month ) for inland areas at the same latitude here. Although I expect that most Eastern Australia sites to have a High well over 90F on at least one day.
 
On the coast however were I live ( also at 34 ' ) , the ocean keep the averages less extreme, in the several years I took data my November had an average max of 23.2C, and a minimum of 15.1C. The lowest ever recorded in the several years was 10C. But that was 1km from the ocean.
 
Rainfall is a different matter. November is a hit or miss month here. My average was 99mm, but one good year corrupts the figures a little.

Just to clarify, the majority of the temps. I listed are from Mena's official wx station(KENA), other sources I occasionally use are the Mena Info Line(for Overall Highs/Lows, and the approx. time they occurred) or the AWS at Mena Airport. (The wx reporting from KENA has an exasperating habit of giving the 24-hour low; which may be the low for the previous morning instead of the current morning). The rain totals are from my rainguage at my house.

Hello Wx Buffs:
         I do wx obs. in Mena like this: A usual day just has a high and low temp. which I can record by listening to KENA. Occasionally a cold/arctic front will come through and I'll need other readings from other sources. KENA gives wx reports only a few times a day(some are forecasts w/no current temp. given). For Overall Highs, Day Lows, Day Highs, Overall Lows, I usually get the temp. and approx. time of occurrence from the Mena Info Line. An ex. this entered into my daily wx log(calendar) would look like this:(For me a day starts at 12:01 A.M. and ends at 11:59 P.M.)  the day in example is Fri. Feb. 16, 2001:
 
              52F      -      27F
 
          12:01 a.m.                  10:57 p.m.
Morn. low=39F
Day high= 44F  8:30 a.m.
Day low= 30F  5:37 p.m. Rain= 2.80"
The 52F is the Overall High, the 27F is the Overall Low.(For the daytime readings, I try to get them right after sunrise and as close to sunset as possible). Some days the temp. falls all day and there is no entry for morn. low(the temp. at sunrise will be the day high). This ex. shows the temp. rising slightly after the morn. low. Since I cannot be on the phone every minute, the times are when I call and are not too far off of actual exact occurrence).   David Powell

Hello David
 
Thankyou for the directions. I love scouring maps but I could not come up with a reasonable detailed state map looking at the whole state not just small sections, do you have a URL? 
I did a search for Mena and came up with a few skeletons - organised crime, gun running, drugs, politicians and murder! All very interesting stuff, reminds me of Griffith NSW without the gun running.

Re. Chas Osborn:
       G'DAY. The following are directions for finding Mena on a topo map:
  Go to: americasroof.com/counties.shtml
   CLICK on Arkansas, a new page will come up with the counties of Arkansas on the lefthand side.
    Scroll down to Polk County, CLICK on Rich Mtn. Lookout Tower, a quadmap will load, either a 1:200000 or 1:100000 scale(elev. in meters) with Rich Mtn.(marked) in the middle.
     For greater detail CLICK on the number(just above top edge of map window) 1:25000, a quadmap will load in(now elevs, in feet).;after maps load, CLICK the Southeast arrow(lower right hand), CLICK Southeast arrow a total of 4 times(let each quadmap load fully in before clicking), after the 4th time, after map has loaded, CLICK the South arrow(bottom) 2 times,(let map fully load each time before clicking). Once this is done you will be on the north end of Mena, then you can click in any direction you wish.  Enjoy   David Powell

Hello! You might try this web address: www.ahtd.state.ar.us/maps.htm  . Yes, Mena's image has been a little muddied by the gun running/drug manuf. allegedly operating through the Mena Airport. I am sure it must've happened, and although I live here, I don't have first-hand info. on any of this. Luckily those illegal ops. have moved elsewhere. The big drug problem here, nowadays is meth labs and small plots of marijuana farming. On this website you may want to CLICK on the State Highway(Tourist) Map. Hope this helps you. Have a :) week!   David Powell

More than 99% of Australia experienced above-normal maximum temperatures in May. It wasn't such a dramatic month for minimum temperatures, but they were still above normal over more than half the country. (Maps of all of the above can be found via the Bureau's climate web pages at http://www.bom.gov.au/climate). Over the globe as a whole, the first four months of 2002 have mean temperatures second only to 1998. Even with a warming trend, cold extremes will still happen - they will just happen less often. Over the 1957-1996 period in Australia, depending on how one defines an extreme, the frequency of cold extremes declined by 10-30% - a noticeable decline but certainly not a complete disappearance. (The reverse is true of warm extremes).

Plain text has worked great with e-mail for the twenty years or so that I've been using it. HTML is only a nuisance. Some of the computers I use handle it gracefully, others do not. Some e-mail server virus scan programs are now bouncing messages that appear to have attached html files because of the recent rash of viruses using this format. With plain text e-mails, you always get the message. With HTML e-mails it's anyone's guess what the message will look like at the other end or whether or not the recipient will ever get it. Hey, I want to read interesting stuff about the weather, not waste time trying to figure out what the e-mail might look like if some dud terminal hadn't scrambled the HTML.

Howdy:
        I believe I've heard this explained before, but I've forgotton it. Sometimes when a storm is on top of us, the clouds will have a greenish color. What causes this?
         Has just about every part of Australia felt the various effects of a cyclone(hurricane)? Mena RARELY gets anything tropical. If the remnants of a Storm make it this far north, it will be just a windy rainmaker. The steering winds direct any landfalling Tropical Storms/Hurricanes either South of us (through Texas) or well to the East of us(One tropical system was carried to the West and Northwest of Arkansas). The last time Mena experienced anything tropical was September 12-14, 1998, when the remnants of Tropical Storm Frances dropped a total of 5.25IN(133.3mm)on us. Sep. 12= 3.10IN(78.7mm), Sep. 13= 1.05IN(26.6mm), Sep. 14= 1.10IN(27.9mm). Before this, I'm not sure of the occurrence.  Have a good one David Powell

Regarding Cyclones, it depends what your classify effects. I think almost every part of Australia has experineced cloud and sometimes rain from ex cyclone systems. More so from Indian Ocean cyclone remnants which can entrained into general mid latitude weather systems.
 
Direct Cyclone exposure is limited to coastal and hinterland areas. In Western Australia down to approx 30'S. On the east coast more like 25'S. The curvature of the SE Australian coast is away from the general path of cyclones, so New Zealand at at higher latitudes actually sees more ex cyclone action then New South Wales.
 
Of course there are always exceptions. Cyclone Donald or ' the duck ' was a notable one and a whole story in itself.
 
 
Read about the duck at the link above.
 
As for Donald ---
 
It looks like a duck,
 
It walks like a duck,
 
It quacks like a duck,
 
It must be a duck !!
 
Translate
 
It looks like Cyclone.
 
It behaves like a Cyclone,
 
It affects the coast like a cyclone, ( strong winds, etc )
 
It must be a cyclone !!
 
yet this duck was never Christened a cyclone.

Howdy:
        I believe I've heard this explained before, but I've forgotton it. Sometimes when a storm is on top of us, the clouds will have a greenish color. What causes this?
         Has just about every part of Australia felt the various effects of a cyclone(hurricane)? Mena RARELY gets anything tropical. If the remnants of a Storm make it this far north, it will be just a windy rainmaker. The steering winds direct any landfalling Tropical Storms/Hurricanes either South of us (through Texas) or well to the East of us(One tropical system was carried to the West and Northwest of Arkansas). The last time Mena experienced anything tropical was September 12-14, 1998, when the remnants of Tropical Storm Frances dropped a total of 5.25IN(133.3mm)on us. Sep. 12= 3.10IN(78.7mm), Sep. 13= 1.05IN(26.6mm), Sep. 14= 1.10IN(27.9mm). Before this, I'm not sure of the occurrence.  Have a good one David Powell

To Everybody:
        Top o' the day to you. My computer detected a suspected virus from one of ya'lls e-mails. I hope this was a mistake, otherwise I AM ABSOLUTELY SORRY if I have irritated anyone to the point of this occurrence. Since Mena is fixing to go into the Summer doldrums, highs mid-80s to mid-90sF, lows mid-60s to mid-70s F; I will try to make my posts more sparse. I assuredly hope this was something beyond human control. Believe me, I'm trying to be a good boy.
         See Ya'll Later    David Powell

Hi all.
 
I would like to extend my thoughts and sorrows to a fellow List member Andrew Godsman and his faimly and friends.
 
Andrew Godsman died suddenly on May 22, aged 29,
May his Body and soul rest in peice.
 
I don't know what he died from, but perhaps someone who knows may fill us in.
 
I'd never met him but i always enjoyed his posts to the list, his last being 21-4-02 titled "Snow watching time".
 
I know the feeling of loosing a mate suddenly and i hope his family and friends are dealing with the pain allright.
 
Once Again

On behalf of all ASWA members I'd like to extend our deepest condolences to all of Andrew's family and friends. Andrew was a common contributer to this list - and many would have met Andrew at Sydney ASWA functions (including the AGM). I will be sending out a letter to his family - if anyone would like to include a small message to his family, please email it to me (cyclone at bigpond.net.au) and I'll compile them and also send them with the letter.
