Hi all,

         Just curious Don and anyone else who might be able to help! Do these dry winters often get followed by wet summers, was this the case in 1970, 1895 and 1880, i dont know as i have very limited info. It would be interesting to draw out any similarities with these years in regards to rainfall and temperature,  to the coming season which is shaping up to be one of those unpredictable ones i think!

Regards,

Thanks        James p     (Sydney)

With generally reasonable but slightly lighter/decreasing wind shear aloft, the storms were slow moving. In fact, the sounding would have represented well a US wind shear field - SSE on the surface turning to SW aloft but generally far less dynamic:) The CAPE (and favourable LI) would have attributed to the more short lived events. This meant that hail drifts were on the card. One storm was suspect with different characteristics but it would be too early to call. The anvil shields then basically contaminated the atmosphere as well as other storm development. After the first lot, you could see the storms not as crisp and relatively weaker and more widespread. Not bad for a first day in Spring. The best activity then moved off the coast. ----------------------------------------- Jimmy Deguara Storm Chaser and Mathematics Teacher from Schofields, Sydney NSW Australia e-mail:jdeguara at ihug.com.au Web Page with Michael Bath Australian Severe Weather Home Page http://www.australiasevereweather.com Member of the Australian Severe Weather Association http://www.severeweather.asn.au +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ To unsubscribe from aussie-weather send e-mail to:majordomo at world.std.com with "unsubscribe aussie-weather your_email_address" in the body of your message. -----------------------jacob at iinet.net.au------------------------------ From: "arky dave" To: Subject: aus-wx: August 2002 Date: Sun, 1 Sep 2002 21:30:41 -0500 X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.50.4133.2400 Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com

Then somehow in this thinking process, I also thought about the dry conditions and Kangaroos/other animals. It is my understanding that Kangaroos and some other animals such as wild pigs will be on the move because of the dry - I assume in search for water. I just thought I would drop in an e-mail to warn people to be extra careful as these hazards are not the most pleasant to deal with. There was one chase when in a back road where a couple of Kangaroos just popped out of the bush and front of the car. Had I hit, the car surely would have been a right - off. Pig also have a mind of their own and will certainly produce larger dents than hailstones :)) I also encourage drivers to make use of the horn. When birds are on the road - no use saying the word "Shoo" as the bird may have already splattered your windscreen or antenna. When you or an off-sider observes birds or animals on the road, beep the horn and if appropriate slow down. But do not slam the brakes as you are putting yourself or another person in danger. I have had a good success rate with birds moving away by beeping the horn repeatedly from a distance. A reminder for the new chasers on the block, please make sure you don't venture out in the wilderness alone until you have gathered sufficient experience in storm chasing from those who have done it. This is extremely important. It is NOT sufficient to just know the theory as chasing is an art where many skills are required for a relatively short time. Apart from the hazards listed above: - It is not a good idea to speed as this means you have not planned your chase properly. - Timing - be there on time and this will not encourage the temptation of being a 'lead foot'. - Think of the conditions that you might expect - umm if you don't, then you should not be chasing. Basically, strong winds, hail and very heavy rainfall including flooding can be expected during severe storms. - Do not cross flooded roads of unknown depth. - Perhaps plan your trip with some knowledge of the types of flooding and time frames associated with flooding and heights that can be expected in the regions you are chasing - Work out the typical direction and speed storms may travel on the day based on soundings or the models (some soundings have this information). A good rule of thumb is 500hPa winds but this does not work all the time. On more isolated situations, storms can and do back-build. If you are not sure, ask other chasers and that way you will learn. By planning the direction, you can then plan your paths from the target regions. No use chasing if you cannot chase within a region where there are no roads. - Take the usual supplies such as water, non-perishable foods, clothing, maps, compass, mobile phone and/or CB/UHF radio, money and/or credit cards ready to plan for accommodation,.... I have found that most inland towns even some coastal towns have vanacies unless there is a show of sorts in the town eg Tamworth Country Music Festival in January. You will find the going tough if not impossible in getting accommodation. - Some people like to book ahead which is a good idea. Please also plan you food as sometimes you may find food is not available at the times tired and weary chasers arrive. - Make sure your car is reliable - if you know there are problems with the vehicle, then you should not be chasing with it, this includes things such as heater and de-mister in working order. If problems do occur and your car was reliable, then it is your unlucky day!!! This was a known risk you took. Such situations are quite rare but have occurred. Refer to other sources of chaser safety on the internet if you feel you require further information of that to do in various situations. http://google.yahoo.com/bin/query?p=chaser+safety&hc=0&hs=0 a search on yahoo lead to many possible sites on chaser safety - Beware of lightning - as this is an unpredictable and dangerous part of lightning. Do NOT stand under tall objects or on high hills out in the open even with a storm nearby. - Beware of aqua-planing. This is one fo the worst hazards of chasing and probably more dangerous for chasers than lightning. This is where water collects up on roads during heavy rain and can cause the car to "float", lose traction and thence lose direction and control for the driver. Slow down during heavy rain. If visibility is down to zero, stop. Don't attempt to be a "moncho" and keep going. - Apart form the safety aspects, patience is something very few chasers I have encountered have. I know of many instances where chasers have simply given up and gone home sometimes at critical times. Storm chasing often takes up a whole day for only an hour or two chasing fun. If you are lucky you could get more than that and in some cases, you may be treated to a lightning show. - Take your equipment camera and video if you have them. Tripods are something I will be making use of in future as the lesson has been learned from this years trip when I virtually stuffed up footage of a tornado. Happy and Safe Storm Chasing.

We don't have the pig problem here but the kangaroos have been "moving" around a fair bit for the last few months and there's always plenty of dead ones where I go on my bus. As you mentioned Jimmy, they can be a big problem.
 
Reminds me of the joke where a car came screaming round the corner and the woman driver yelled out to the bloke going the other way, "PIG!". He yelled back, "BITCH!" and flew around the corner and hit a pig :-)

Venue: The Weather Company, 7 West St North Sydney. Time: 7pm Parking: Free in the streets around TWC building. Press the Weather21 buzzer to be let in. Elections for the positions of NSW State Representitive will be held during this meeting. There are two ways to nominate for State Rep: 1) Self nomination: Self nomination, with a seconder for the nomination. 2) Member Nomination: Another member may nominate you, along with a seconder, along with your acceptance of nomination. All nominations may be sent to Matt at tornado at cnn.net.au , no later than September 12 with the subject "State Rep Nominations". Agenda: * New ASWA Committee voted in. * Thoughts and Reflections - 2002 ASWA Conference. * New ASWA polo shirts will be for sale, $25 each, as well as hats and stickers. * Discussion about Thunder Down Under this year and the upcomming storm season. * Storm News. * VIC/QLD ASWA in discussion with the BOM in each state about joint training/presentations. Would this be a viable option for NSW ASWA to follow if they are successfull? * Current weather analysis and update. September can be a month full of surprises with the weather. The days are getting warmer and longer, dew points increasing slowly, troughs can start to become established in the interior, cold fronts clipping SE Aus can bring snow to the mountains, but they can also bring thunderstorms. Tonight we will discuss a few recent severe events that have occured in September in NSW. A couple of dates in particular will be featured, but will be a surprise for the night! If you would like to contribute in anyway on the night about weather in september, by photographs, video, charts, or anything at all, please email Matt Smith at tornado at cnn.net.au , or see him on the night before the meeting. Bring yourself, a friend, anyone! Everyone is welcome to what will be a very interesting evening talking about what we love the most, weather. Also bring a few dollars for pizza! See you there! Matthew Smith and Matthew Pearce NSW ASWA State Reps. +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ To unsubscribe from aussie-weather send e-mail to:majordomo at world.std.com with "unsubscribe aussie-weather your_email_address" in the body of your message. -----------------------jacob at iinet.net.au------------------------------ From: "Sha" To: Subject: Re: aus-wx: Rainbows Date: Wed, 4 Sep 2002 01:26:19 +1000 X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.50.4807.1700 Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com Hi guys I thought I'd also share some rainbow photos ..... both are double rainbows against blue skies.

Just a quick question to see if anyone can help. I have a Sony TRV78E HI8 Handycam, and were wondering if it was possible to disable the battery save feature on the camera. If you just leave the camera sitting there like I do, plugged into the power outlet, and not have it recording or anything, it switches itself off after a short while. Can this be disabled??? I'm sick of having to record everything onto tape as I am able to use the cam as a webcam.

The article sounds like it will focus on the storm chaser, why we chase and alike (human interest). From what was read to me it sounds pretty good, they also said my photo will appear, so for those that haven't meet me, you will see what I look like, ekkkk, lol. I was pretty hyper during the interview (as some of you know I can get), so I hope I dont come across as been too crazy (after just watching "A Beautiful Mind").

Also, kangaroos move around the most at dawn and dusk, so one should be especially careful as the sun goes down. During the day it's not to common to see roos on the move (have just completed a round trip to Broken Hill, didn't see one live kangaroo - planned it so we wouldn't be on the road during "roo peak hour"). Emus were plentiful just out of Wentworth, but they demonstrated somewhat more road sense than the average kangaroo. However, I'd rather slow down and hit the horn than hit one at speed... :) Other remote area hazards include wandering stock of any kind (this trip, we were stopped by sheep, horses and even camels...). 73 de Tony, VK3JED http://vk3jed.vk.irlp.net X-Sender: vk3jed-1 at 202.12.87.169 (Unverified) X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 5.1 Date: Sat, 07 Sep 2002 01:35:49 +1000 To: aussie-weather at world.std.com From: "Tony Langdon (VK3JED)" Subject: Re: aus-wx: Lowest pressure in 4 years Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com At 09:27 PM 2/09/2002 +1000, you wrote: >The trick is; where is the AM static coming from?? North or west.? >PS. Why cant I access #weather - even from the home page?? In theory, it is possible to get an idea where static may be coming from. In practice, it may not work for distant static, but can work for "local" static. Maybe it's time for a quick lesson in "foxhunting" (no furry creatures get harmed here), otherwise known more correctly as Radio Direction Finding. Equipment you will need: 1 portable AM transistor radio. 2 working ears (ideally as a set belonging to the same person ;) ). Theory: A portable AM radio uses a multi turn magnetic loop antenna wound on a ferrite rod (if you open up the radio, you will see a black rod inside with a large coil of wire wound around it - that is the antenna). One of the charactistics of this antenna is that it is somewhat directional. The antenna picks up signals strongest at right angles to the rod and weakest when the source is off one of the ends. Practice time... Firstly, you need to find out which way the ferrite rod is aligned within the radio. If you're game, open the radio up and look. If not, you can work it out with the help of a normal AM radio station, provided you know its location. In a lot of portable radios, the antenna runs lengthwise along the top of the radio. 1. Find an AM station that is easily received, but not particularly strong (i.e. you can hear a little "hiss" behind it). Position the radio so that the ferrite rod antenna is horizontal (for many radios, this is the case when the radio is sitting upright in its normal operating position). 2. Slowly rotate the radio until the signal is at its weakest. At this point, the station is now being "pointed to" by one of the ends of the rod antenna. 3. It is possible to make an antenna system that can tell you which end the signal is coming from, but that's something for advanced constructors. It's easier to make an intelligent guess based on known facts about the signal source (i.e. approximate location/service area - or perhaps known weather features, if the source is static), or by using triangulation techniques, with the help of a couple of other people a fair distance from you. Let's go hunting! Try the same techniques on a clear frequency when there is static. I haven't tried this yet myself, and would be interested to hear how people go pinpointing the direction of static. FWIW, the HF bands have been going off for much of the week, but my antenna efficiency is somewhat higher than that of most AM broadcast radios, so I tend to pull it in for hundreds to thousands of km from the source. 73 de Tony, VK3JED http://vk3jed.vk.irlp.net From: "Simon Angell" To: Subject: Re: aus-wx: ACT/NSW storms Date: Sat, 7 Sep 2002 03:31:39 +1000 X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2600.0000 X-OriginalArrivalTime: 06 Sep 2002 17:32:52.0210 (UTC) FILETIME=[6D68C520:01C255CB] Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com Hi All, I have uploaded a picture Gallery with 72 pics from today.

Hi all.

Nice storm we had in Bathurst last night. Lightning flashes 3- 4 a second. Mind you it passed to the North of us after battering Cowra with approx 3 inches of hail. Heard on radio scanner, hail had caused car accidents and blocked highways. Radio stations put alert on stating not to drive. Mitchell Hwy between Bathurst and Orange also copped some nice hail.

A nice start for the season. Bathurst had 4 storms in last week.

But what I did see was quite impressive..but storms were quite local and short lived and if you blinked you would probably have missed them anyway. I think the upper winds were too strong for any sustained activity. I had seen some convection to the southwest earlier but didn't think it would take off. Presumably it punctured a cap and got blown away.

Mind me if storms had developed in the area, they would have been impressive. I called it a bust because my favoured target area did not produce storms. I will view my 9 or 10 minutes of video to see if it was useful for a consolation prize. Jimmy Deguara At 04:02 PM 7/9/2002 +1000, you wrote: >Hi Jimmy, > >you saw lightning? and storm structure?

On the odd occasion their was even some nice rotation in some of the CJ's.

I've dug up a bit of information (as below), but there has to be more out there - can anyone point me to more information about this phenomenon? Definitions from Mt Washington Observatory: ** baroclinic - Description of an atmospheric condition in which constant pressure surfaces intersect surfaces of constant temperature. In weather analysis, a baroclinic atmosphere exists when isotherms exist in an isobaric surface analysis. In a baroclinic atmosphere, there is a horizontal temperature gradient and variation with height of the geostrophic wind (thermal wind). ** baroclinic instability - An amplification of a perturbation owing to the vertical shear and high wind speeds found in the jet stream. Only waves with wavelengths on the synoptic scale (1,000 kilometers) tend to amplify with this type of instability. Baroclinic instability converts potential energy to kinetic energy and is an important mechanism in the global energy balance. ** baroclinic wave - A wave that develops in a highly baroclinic atmosphere as a result of baroclinic instability. Baroclinic waves develop in the region of strong temperature gradients. Horizontal temperature advection is required for baroclinic waves to develop. Baroclinic waves are also referred to as baroclinic cyclones or baroclinic disturbances. During baroclinic wave development, waves tilt westward with height.

Hi all,
 
Storms moved through the area from about 3:00pm to 8:00pm, all were small low topped multicells with very low lightning frequencies, probably CG's only every 10 mins at best.  So this chap was unlucky to say the least.  12.5mm rain at Mt. Crosby, with 10mm from first cell which actually passed overhead at around 4:30pm.
 
John

Just read newspaper from Bathurst. Tornado hit the Wattle Flat town on Friday night during the nasty storm which the area around 7pm. A near new shed, maded of steel was destroyed, the only thing left was the concrete foundation. Chairs/bbq and tables stored in shed were thrown hundreds of meters by the freak weather conditions and have left torn, bent or in pieces. The tornado left a trail of destruction of about 20 metres. . The racecourse looked like it had been hit by a cyclone type winds. (as stated in paper). The weather had earlier dumped about 100mm rain in Cowra, Milthorpe and Blayney. Blayney's SES unit was called to assist after the roof of a 2 storey house was ripped off in high winds.

Sensational! I've been at Maatsuyker in 60+ knots so I'd hate to be there in 90!
Looks like they've had a fair bit of rain there too.
If the anemometer is damaged it could take some time to get out there to fix it - it would be a shame if we were to miss some more extreme obs.
Thanks for highlighting it Chas/Helen.

This storm intensified markedly as it approached Brisbane where the higher moisture was. Anthony said it was likely the seabreeze front caused this intensification and I'm inclined to agree. I'd say this was easily the most significant storm of the day and probably with higher tops than the rest - although I couldn't see the tops with other cloud in the way from my position. A storm that moved through southern suburbs and Logan earlier was probably the 'next best'. In regards to the lightning, it was infrequent to the west but as it (the main storm) passed over Brisbane, lightning was occurring every few seconds, with at least 2-3 CG's a minute.

The word "scanner" has 2 common meanings online: 1. A device for acquiring images from photographs and printed material and converting this to digital form 2. A radio receiver which scans a very wide range of frequencies. The rest of this email refers to the latter... Scanners are receivers, so they are most useful for listening to other services such as police, fire, SES and the like, which can be handy for following some weather events. Because scanners don't transmit, they're not useful for car-car comms, stick to CB for that. :) 73 de Tony, VK3JED http://vkradio.com Date: Mon, 09 Sep 2002 21:25:08 +1000 From: Anthony Cornelius X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.78 [en] (Windows NT 5.0; U) X-Accept-Language: en To: aussie-weather at world.std.com Subject: Re: aus-wx: Tornado - Wattle Flat Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com Hello Michael, To clarify a few things. This is *not* an ASWA list, it's completely independent from ASWA. It just happens that a lot of aussie-weather-list members are also ASWA members. It is important that this is not confused.

I am the local beta tester (the Sydney dot here http://www.raob.com/DOS/customer.htm) and have just installed and run up the latest refinement, which is real good. John Shewchuk (the programmer) has just updated his site (as of 8th September) with the details and you can get a good idea of the program's displays here. http://www.raob.com/RAOB5.htm though what you see there is only part of the story, the analysis data files that it produces are extensive for those interested in serious analysis, and the interactive capabilities have to be "played with" to be appreciated. It's best and most powerful feature is it's interactive capability, which allows chasers to do "what if" analysis, great on those "marginal chase days", you can click and drag the T and Td traces to move your temp and DP as the day goes on, and it generates new CAPE's etc etc. With "Spormer" (see http://www.downunderchase.com/miscellaneous/chaserdictionary.html) almost here, a must have ! There is also a new 3D hodograph module, tiltable in elevation and rotateable in azimuth.. For glider pilots, there is a soaring module that allows similar interactive "what if" analysis for predicting thermal heights / lift strength etc. The wave analysis and area plot functions (from Raob 4 or Dos) are still being developed, but should be along in a few months (hopefully). A quick summary of the new goodies. - New diagram option to display all standard TTAA pressure levels, including 925, 850, 250 and 150mb. - New diagram option to control the display of Emagram .vs. SkewT for high altitude soundings. - Automatic cloud analyses at all temperatures, not just freezing temperatures. - Improved data file handling. - Improved data processing during Interactive sessions. - FSL formatted data are no longer restricted to 300 data levels. - Improved ZOOM diagram scaling. - Improved error detection and memory management. Any questions, ask John at Environmental Research Services - e-mail ers at raob.com There is a demo version downloadable from http://www.raob.com/Downloads.htm I usually do a check of the Australian sondes most days from Wyoming or Noaa data, so if anyone wants a sample of a particular sounding fully analysed e-mail me at ventus45 at ihug.com.au and if I have the raw data I should be able to do you a zip file of all the possible outputs for you to consider.

If I remember correctly, the consensus was that for any hybrid or sub- tropical storm that was predicted to become tropical or that was predicted to result in TS or hurricane conditions somewhere along the US coast that a name ought to be allocated, even if the storm was not strictly speaking a tropical storm. Also, if I recall correctly, the decision was made at an official level earlier this year to do just that - to name all storms likely to affect any part of the US coast with tropical storm force or higher winds whether it was actually a tropical storm or not. It would take me hours to hunt out the notes if I still have them, but maybe someone else knows where to find this information more easily.

The particular cell mentioned in the article (3:30pm, the second to pass Ipswich after a weak 2:30pm shower) was very weak, with only very infrequent CG thunder heard at Mt. Crosby (1 per 10 mins ~ rough est), although I did observe significant intensification once it moved towards the city. I had a good view of the cloud tops to the East from Bellbowrie (mini chase...) around 4:00pm, and they were both glaciated and building, although nothing very crisp about it. A later cell, which passed directly through Mt Crosby at 4:30pm, was also weak, but it did produce a few CG's (maybe 1 every 5 mins) with quite a bit of CC thunder. This also seemed to intensify as it moved away to the East. Later evening cells were coming off the ranges in a significantly decayed state, but still good enough for the odd CG and a bit of drizzle. Got a nice snap (or two.. :) )of a very nice low altitude crisp backshear well away to the NE around 5:00pm.

This storm intensified markedly as it approached Brisbane where the higher moisture was. Anthony said it was likely the seabreeze front caused this intensification and I'm inclined to agree. I'd say this was easily the most significant storm of the day and probably with higher tops than the rest - although I couldn't see the tops with other cloud in the way from my position. A storm that moved through southern suburbs and Logan earlier was probably the 'next best'. In regards to the lightning, it was infrequent to the west but as it (the main storm) passed over Brisbane, lightning was occurring every few seconds, with at least 2-3 CG's a minute.

The 23W fireworks display! Firstly thanks everybody for your greetings. Well, several of you guys were right! A Typhoon Signal for my birthday! The HK Observatory hoisted Typhoon Signal Number One at 14:40 local time today. They followed this up by hoisting the Thunderstorm warning at 15:20. As I left work at about 16:10 and headed for home the wind was already picking up in a typical pre-storm fashion and the sky was becoming threateningly dark for mid-afternoon. At about 18:00 the kids and I did the birthday cake and blowing out the candles trick that kids love so much. I observed the first few lightning strokes outside as the candles were being lit. Then the lights were turned off for the singing of "Happy Birthday" and the lightning outside started in real earnest with nearby CGs pulsating brightly every couple of seconds. And there were magnificent drum rolls of nearly continuous thunder. I took the kids to the window and said "look at the wonderful fireworks display that God has put on for my birthday party!" I wasn't really able to watch the storm all that much because of the celebrations but the lightning was pretty frequent for well over an hour. Now as I type at about 20:55 I can hear the rain beating down and there are still occasional rumbles of distant thunder. As 23W is definitely on the way I shall start capturing observations to record it.

A Tropical Cyclone Alert is now in effect and the Standby Signal, No. 1 has been issued. This means that a tropical cyclone now centred within about 800 kilometres of Hong Kong may affect us. At 7 p.m. the tropical depression over the northern part of the South China Sea was centred about 500 kilometres east-southeast of Hong Kong (near 19.8 degrees north 118.2 degrees east) and is forecast to move west-northwest at about 12 kilometres per hour across the northern part of the South China Sea. According to the forecast track, the tropical depression will skirt about 200 kilometres to the south of Hong Kong from tomorrow night to the day after tomorrow. Local winds will strengthen and winds will be strong offshore and on high ground. In the next couple of days, the outer rainband of the tropical depression will affect the south China coastal areas. There will be scattered squally showers in Hong Kong. (Precautionary Announcements with No. 1 Signal) (1) If you are planning to visit Macau, any of the off-shore islands or remote parts of Hong Kong, you are reminded that changes in weather may affect your plans. (2) Some precautions against damage should be taken now, gutters and drains should be cleared of obstructions. Hinges, bolts, locks and shutters of windows and doors should be checked. (3) People living in wooden huts and in low-lying areas should take necessary precautions against strong winds and flooding. (4) Listen to your radio or watch your TV for further weather information. Time to go to bed now. More to follow when there is something significant to report.

When I checked AWS readings on the web I noticed stations with a 10 Minute Mean Wind Speed of 50+ km/h so I guessed correctly that HKO would hoist Signal Three before the Education Department meeting at 05:45. The hoisted it at 05:40 and the Education Department closed all Kindergartens. Outside the wind was blowing quite noisily and the rain was teeming down so I captured the AWS graphs and observations for my storm page. AT about 07:30 I went outside to catch a taxi and there were 40 or 50 people in the queue and not a taxi to be seen so I travelled by bus and train to Fo Tan. It was raining and gusty as I walked from the train station to work at about 08:00, but an hour later I looked out a window and observed that the rain and wind had both stopped. Looking out now at 09:45, the branches are swaying but whole trees are not. There is no sign of rain but a lot of water lying on the ground. The clouds are racing across the sky at a very rapid rate.

As this e-mail client allows for no formatting of any sort, I hope the HTML tags I put around the above table will help at your end. Here is the current warning from the observatory: 
Bulletin issued at 07:55 HKT 11/Sep/2002 
TROPICAL CYCLONE BULLETIN

Here is the latest Tropical Cyclone Warning issued by the
Hong Kong Observatory.

The Strong Wind Signal, No. 3 has been issued.

This means that winds with mean speeds of 41 to 62 kilometres per
hour are expected.

At 8 a.m. the tropical storm over the northern part of the South
China Sea was estimated to be about 180 kilometres south of Hong
Kong (near 20.7 degrees north 114.5 degrees east) and is forecast
to move west-northwest at about 15 kilometres per hour towards
the western part of Guangdong.

As the tropical storm is gradually edging closer to Hong Kong,
local winds are strengthening with heavy squally showers.
Members of the public are reminded to take necessary precautions.

During the past hour, the mean wind speed recorded at Cheung Chau
was 39 kilometres per hour, while that recorded at Waglan Island
was 71 kilometres per hour.

(Precautionary Announcements with No. 3 Signal)

(1)

Since seas are very rough, you are advised to stay away
from the shoreline and not to engage in water sports.

(2)

Engineers, architects and contractors are again reminded that
all scaffoldings, hoardings and temporary buildings should be
secured.

(3)
Small craft owners should now complete arrangements for the
safety of their boats.

(4)
Listen to your radio or watch your TV for further weather
broadcasts.
The most noticeable effect of the storm to date is that Internet access to weather data has become very difficult. Pages are timing out on a 2GHz computer connected directly to a 10 Mbps line and I am sitting at a desk less than a kilometre away from the HKIX - the huge Internet Exchange that serves this whole region. The observatory claims that the centre of the storm is now 180 km south of Hong Kong. More later.

The observatory has announced the proposed hoisting of Typhoon Signal number Eight, which means we must evacuate the school. The Internet is still operational although the phone system seems to have totally collapsed. The landline phones are not working at all. Mobile (cellular) phone system cells also appear to have failed. All teachers with mobile phones are unable to make calls. Because of the above it is not possible to contact the kids' parents to find out if they will be home to meet their kids. One wonders if the effects of an enforced evacuation might be more severe than sending the kids home at the regular time in the midst of the storm. Will have something more sensible to say about the storm when I am able to find out more about it. Here are the latest obs I can get from HK AWS's

And here is the latest I can get from the observatory: 
Bulletin issued at 12:19 HKT 11/Sep/2002 
TROPICAL CYCLONE BULLETIN

Here is the latest Tropical Cyclone Warning issued by the
Hong Kong Observatory.

The Strong Wind Signal, No. 3 has been issued.

This means that winds with mean speeds of 41 to 62 kilometres per
hour are expected.

At noon Severe Tropical Storm Hagupit was estimated to be about
170 kilometres south of Hong Kong (near 20.8 degrees north
114.2 degrees east) and is forecast to move west-northwest at about
15 kilometres per hour towards the western part of Guangdong.

Strong winds are generally prevailing over the territory now, winds
are reaching gale occasionally offshore and on high ground.

As Hagupit is gradually edging closer, local winds are becoming
southeasterlies. Some places of the territory will become more exposed
and winds will strengthen further. The Observatory is expected to issue
the No.8 Gale or Storm Signal in 2 hours. Members of the public are
reminded to take necessary precautions.

During the past hour, the mean wind speed recorded at Star Ferry
was 45 kilometres per hour, while that recorded at Cheung Chau
was 74 kilometres per hour.

(Precautionary Announcements with No. 3 Signal)

(1)
You are advised not to delay in taking all precautions to
protect your home or property. make sure now that all loose
objects are secure. porch furniture, flower pots and other
objects likely to be blown away should be taken indoors. Check
again and make sure all windows and doors can be securely
locked.

(2)
Storm water drains should be cleared of leaves and rubbish, this
applies particularly to dwellers in low-lying areas.

(3)
Since seas are very rough, you are advised to stay away
from the shoreline and not to engage in water sports.

(4)
For safety reasons, it is suggested that all outdoor activities
be cancelled.

(5)
Engineers, architects and contractors are again reminded that
all scaffoldings, hoardings and temporary buildings should be
secured.

(6)
Fishing vessels not yet in typhoon shelters should seek shelter
without delay. Check again that all deck fittings are firmly
fastened. If available, heavy anchors should be prepared and used
in addition to regular anchors.

(7)
Listen to your radio or watch your TV for further weather
broadcasts.

PRE - NO. 8  SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT.

THE GOVERNMENT ADVISES THE PUBLIC THAT IN VIEW OF
THE APPROACH OF SEVERE TROPICAL STORM HAGUPIT,
WINDS LOCALLY WILL STRENGTHEN FURTHER AND THE ISSUANCE OF
A TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNING SIGNAL NUMBER 8 IS EXPECTED
WITHIN THE NEXT TWO HOURS.

MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC HAVING LONG OR DIFFICULT HOME JOURNEYS
OR HAVING TO RETURN TO OUTLYING ISLANDS ARE ADVISED TO BEGIN
THEIR JOURNEYS NOW. THE GOVERNMENT IS NOW MAKING ARRANGEMENTS
TO RELEASE ITS EMPLOYEES ACCORDINGLY.

Paul & Simon,
 
The WM918 (cabled station) only is sold by Dick Smith, the WMR-918 (cable free version) isn't supplied by them.
 
I've just checked - Australian Sky and Weather can supply the WMR-918 station for $999.00 (incl GST) plus delivery - but it's not shown on the website atm.
 
Cheers

I think everybody got the brief e-mail in which I described the chaos surrounding the hoisting of Typhoon Signal Eight this afternoon. If anybody doesn't know what I am talking about ask and I shall resend it. The general communications breakdown lasted for many hours as all the computers used to switch telephones in HK hung. Before the computers failed there were many millions of simultaneous calls in progress. It was nearly 18:00 before I could get a dial tone. Details of other massive failures resulting from bureaucratic stupidity gone mad would be too off-topic and boring to relate and will no doubt make headlines in news services. Although evacuation orders were made at about 12:00 it was 15:30 before the last people could be bussed out and I could bring down all the computers and lock up. Therefore I was indoors until 15:30 although I went to a window and looked out a few times earlier to see trees whipping about violently and clouds racing across the sky from SE to NW. As I walked to the train station I saw that anyone who actually attempted to use an umbrella was fighting a losing battle. Authorities still trying to clear a multi-bus pile-up from a road nearby explained why evacuation had taken so long. Down on the train platform, many people were hanging onto posts for fear of being blown away. To me it wasn't really that bad. When I left the train and attempted to board a bus, I was confronted by more chaos - the population of our country township is approximately one million and it seemed like half of them were in that bus terminus trying to get home! I saw on local TV that a scaffolding from a construction site in Central Hong Kong had collapsed on top of a passing double-decker tram (US = "trolley car") and a bus resulting in a number of pasengers being taken to hospital. There were many reports of other wind damage, but I did not hear of any other casualties. The noise of the wind is like a wailing banshee as I type and it has been this way now for several hours. The rain is very heavy for a period and then there is none - clearly there are successive rainbands passing over us.

The No. 8 Southeast Gale or Storm Signal is in force. This means that winds with mean speeds of 62 kilometres per hour or more are expected from the southeast quarter. At 10 p.m., Severe Tropical Storm Hagupit was estimated to be about 170 kilometres southwest of Hong Kong (near 21.3 degrees north 112.9 degrees east) and is forecast to move west-northwest at about 15 kilometres per hour towards the western part of Guangdong. In the past couple of hours, Hagupit started to move away from Hong Kong gradually. According to the forecast track, Hong Kong will exit the gales of Hagupit in the small hours tomorrow. Currently, gale force winds prevail over the southwestern part of the territory. Winds occasionally reach storm force on high ground. During the past hour, the mean wind speed recorded at Star Ferry was 37 kilometres per hour with maximum gust at 58 kilometres per hour, while those recorded at Cheung Chau were 80 kilometres per hour and maximum gust at 105 kilometres per hour. (Precautionary Announcements with No. 8 Signal) (1) Complete all precautions in your home. Lock all windows and doors, fit bars into position and insert reinforced shutters and gates if they are available. Adhesive tape fixed to large window- panes in exposed positions will reduce damage by broken glass. Storm water drains should be cleared of leaves and rubbish. (2) Do not stand near windows on the exposed side of your home. Move all furniture and valuables away from these areas. Make sure you have a safe place to shelter, should windows be broken. (3) Owners of neon signs are reminded that they should now arrange for the electricity supply to their signs to be cut off. (4) Since seas are very rough, you are advised to stay away from the shoreline and not to engage in water sports. (5) Weather information is being broadcast at the 15th, 30th, 45th and 58th minute of each hour. Please listen to your radio or watch your TV for the weather information.

Hi all, When you don't expect much to happen, along comes an interesting and large cloud band through central Aus and as far south as northwest Vic, seems to be associated with mid and upper level baroclinic tendencies coupled with an upper trough, it looks good though regards Clyve Herbert.

Note that Cheung Chau still had significant wind even though all signals had beeen lowered half an hour earlier. HK Observatory Warning at 05:08: Bulletin issued at 05:08 HKT 12/Sep/2002 TROPICAL CYCLONE BULLETIN Here is the latest Tropical Cyclone Warning issued by the Hong Kong Observatory. The Strong Wind Signal, No. 3 has been issued. This means that winds with mean speeds of 41 to 62 kilometres per hour are expected. At 5 a.m. Severe Tropical Storm Hagupit was estimated to be about 250 kilometres west-southwest of Hong Kong (near 21.8 degrees north 111.8 degrees east) and is forecast to move west-northwest at about 15 kilometres per hour across the western part of Guangdong. Hagupit has made landfall near Yangjiang over west Guangdong. It is expected that Hagupit will weaken gradually in the next few hours. As local winds remain strong and seas are rough, Strong Wind Signal no.3 is still required. The Observatory will cancel all tropical cyclone signals when Hagupit no longer poses any threat to the territory. (Precautionary Announcements with No. 3 Signal) (1) You should not relax taking precautions as strong winds are still blowing and unsecured objects may be blown down. On no account should you touch electric cables that have been blown loose. (2) Since seas are very rough, you are advised to stay away from the shoreline and not to engage in water sports. (3) Listen to your radio or watch your TV for further weather broadcasts. HK Observatory warning issued at 05:57: Bulletin issued at 05:57 HKT 12/Sep/2002 Here is the latest Tropical Cyclone Bulletin issued by the Hong Kong Observatory. All signals were cancelled at 5:40 a.m. At 6 a.m. Severe Tropical Storm Hagupit was centred about 270 kilometres west-southwest of Hong Kong (near 21.8 degrees north 111.6 degrees east) and is forecast to move west-northwest at about 15 kilometres per hour across west Guangdong. Hagupit has made landfall near Yangjiang and will weaken gradually. Locally, winds offshore and on high ground remain strong and seas are rough at first. Members of the public should keep alert. This will be the last report unless other news comes to hand.

We received 1mm of rain from this trough today in Alice Springs, and it has become quite cool. This has been the first rain since May. It looks as though there have been greater falls 200 kms south - they've had rainy conditions for the last 3 days.
 
The local paper reported that Alice Springs has just experienced it's driest 6 months on record. But due to the last 2-3 years of good rains, there is still plenty of pasture for the cows to feed on. Roos must be getting a little thirsty though - when it gets dry, the Roos hang around roads in the hope of finding some water puddles, and therefore lots of roadkill, and therefore lots of fat well fed wedge-tail eagles.
Cheers,
Duncan
Alice Springs

However, I was in California in September 1985 and experienced a good storm, but under more credible conditions. I was in San Diego and awoke to steady rain. I left that morning for the Grand Canyon and was only just outside San diego climbing the ranges when the thunder and lightning began. This scenario is less rare as there was no storm on the coast itself. Crossing over the ranges and into Arizona and there was flash floods in Pheonix and I saw lightning hit sand dunes. It was all caused by himid air from the Gulf of California. That night at Flagstaff it became very cold, next morning and the mountain behind Flagstaff was drapped in snow.

The local papers described it as "a wall of water" came rolling down the river and, if I remember correctly, hundreds perished.

To answer this question, allow me to relate how we were taught to estimate cloud cover. The way it was explained to me around 50 years ago was that it is very easy to divide the whole sky into halves. Sometimes it is 1/2 clouds and 1/2 clear. We call this condition 4/8 - see below. It is then very easy to divide each half into quarters. This would give scales of 1/4, 2/4, 3/4 and 4/4 for your cloud coverage if the quarters were conveniently either full of clouds or devoid of them. The next stage is to decide whether some of those quarters were about half full of clouds, completely full or completely clear. A completely full quarter of the sky counts as 2/8, a half-full quarter counts as 1/8 and a completely clear quarter counts as 0/8. So we would stand on the hilltop and slowly turn ourselves around in a full circle estimating whether each quarter of the sky was full of cloud (2/8), half-full of cloud (1/8), or empty of cloud (0/8). Then we would add up our four estimations to arrive at our cloud cover estimate for that observation time. When our class was taken outside day after day to each independently assess the cloud cover, the amazing thing was that we all became so accurate at it so quickly that we would all arrive at exactly the same figure each day. So the dividing into eighths was simply an aid to estimating. Here in Hong Kong where I am always surrounded by mountains and tall buildings, an accurate estimation is harder because one cannot see the sky all the way to the horizon so one extrapolates from the clouds or lack thereof that one can see and intelligently "guesses" the state of the rest of the quarter one is considering. I think my estimates here are just about as accurate as the ones I used to make in Australia. Of course there are a vast number of days here during our summers where every day for week after week is 8/8. That makes it easy!

Afternoon all,
 
anyone noticed the dewpoints for Victoria, particularly in the central and western areas.
 
At 3pm we had the following conditions:
Melbourne 22.2 / -6.9
Mildura 25.3 / -13.2
Bendigo 20.8 / -5.7
 
Pretty unusual to have dewpoints like that even in the middle of summer. Suspect there won't be any storms today.......

Global warming. I don't look into figures etc and don't wish to start any bun fights. Has anyone thought that maybe this is a natural cycle that happens every once in a while? It could be a natural cycle that happens every once in a while? I'm normally wrong :-), but just putting another view in. No offence meant to anyone's beliefs. :-) I have nothing to back up my theories other than mother nature "irons" things out eventually as she tries to with the weather all over the world.

For me, it started with yesterday's N-NW wind accompanied by very low dewpoints (if the air is dry, you'll notice that the symptoms are worse). I know that I'm allergic to rye grass and book dust, but I think yesterday's sneezing and carrying on was due the rye grass - I didn't disturb the book dust any more than usual Btw, the places my hayfever has been the worst were in Sydney (lived on top of the hill in Harris Park) and once driving through the pine plantation near Marulan - I sneezed 85 times in a row, Canberra wasn't too good for it either. Since I moved to Melbourne, it's become much less of a problem until I get near the Southern Tablelands.

Hi all. An interesting cloud band extending from near Darwin to the head of the Bight is rather unusual, appears to be convection affecting the mid levels and the presence of a weak trough, regards Clyve Herbert.

Today, when Rodney and I were driving home from the QLD ASWA meeting, coming off the Logon Motorway where it joins the Gold Coast - Brisbane freeway, we spotted two funnels at the base of a congesting cumulus off the coast (east of Beenleigh I'd say). One was pretty well vertical while the one to its right was at an angle of almost 45 degrees. Needless to say, it was a mad dash to find ANY spot to stop and get a better look. By the time we did, it was not even worth videoing the last remaining portion of one of the funnels. The congesting cumulus was probably about 3km in height and quite narrow, with a base around the 1km mark. The funnels extended approximately 200 metres below the base of the cloud. We kept watching as we drove south, but the larger clouds were to the north. I'd say funnels are not uncommon in this region from even the most "ordinary" looking cumulus. regards, Michael ================================================================== Michael Bath mailto:mbath at ozemail.com.au McLeans Ridges co-webmaster: http://australiasevereweather.com/ North Coast NSW webmaster: http://lightningphotography.com/ Australia co-webmaster: http://www.severeweather.asn.au/ Australian Severe Weather Association president ================================================================== +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ To unsubscribe from aussie-weather send e-mail to:majordomo at world.std.com with "unsubscribe aussie-weather your_email_address" in the body of your message. -----------------------jacob at iinet.net.au------------------------------ From: "Jane ONeill" To: "Aussie-wx" Subject: aus-wx: N-S Trough Date: Sat, 14 Sep 2002 20:04:47 +1000 X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2600.0000 Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com Clyve Herbert wrote: An interesting cloud band extending from near Darwin to the head of the Bight is rather unusual, appears to be convection affecting the mid levels and the presence of a weak trough.

My oldest brother has always been the worst, but when he moved over to England 2 years ago, he didn't have any hayfever at all!! He was hayfever free up until now expect his trip to Switzerland (in which all of us were blowing our nose for the entire trip!). When the rest of my family were in England, none of us had hayfever either. I think the other time our hayfever was at its best was when we went to Tasmania. Didn't have any problems there. My thinking would be that you'd be more used to your own area, but I guess not. It's tempting to move to a cooler location just to leave the hayfever behind, but I don't think I could handle it any colder than NE NSW =) Dave Ellem ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Thompson" To: Sent: Saturday, September 14, 2002 11:45 PM Subject: Re: aus-wx: Hayfever - was Contrails > The same things I am allergic too !

These clouds were on the other side of North Stradbroke Island to my south east. I did have my camera in the boot of my car .... raced down to Cleveland Point and within that two minute space one had dissappeared and the other was so difficult to see as it was on a sharp angle... that I thought hey.... I must have been dreaming.

Two of my sisters moved to Queensland (Gold Coast) many years ago, and reported that they had far less problems with hay fever than they used to get when living near Melbourne. It must depend on the specific allergen (which would make sense to me).

Couldn't be the too sterile environment in my case - you're talking about a child who used to wander about on roofs when she was 2 and 3 years old, crawl through the garden and eat dirt and snails...... I was born in the eastern suburbs of Sydney & lived there till I was 7 & then moved to Canberra and stayed in the area till I was 24 - developed my first symptoms in my late teens working in a newsagency where I started in the book section covering the expensive books in plastic. I'd had no symptoms till then. After that I had problems with book dust and developed an allergy to rye grass, but they were manageable in the most part. I tracked down one antihistamine (and only one) that works for me - Avil Retard (which knocks most people out for 24 hours) and remember taking that constantly while at Uni in Canberra. Moved to Sydney & it was patchy, but I think it was the summer of 82 - 83? which was very dry especially west of the GDR & EVERYONE I knew suffered horribly that summer / autumn from rye grass allergy. Moved to Darwin for a time - nothing. Moved back to Canberra - symptoms cam back, but were manageable. Moved to Melbourne & had 2 years of hell where nothing worked for in 1990 & 91 (if you took out shares in Kleenex, they would have risen), & then it subsided again. The last 2 years have been bliss. But...I'd fly to Canberra in summer & start sneezing as soon as I got off the plane..... & if I drive north I'll sneeze mainly from Albury to Orange & then it stops..... and talking about the unpredictablility of allergic reactions..... in May 2001 I took the 2nd course of Ceclor (a penicillin) and promptly went into anaphylactic shock - so I can't take any drug from that family now and yet I'd been taking them on and off for years for sinus infections...and suddenly without warning I ended up in hospital, so I now carry adrenaline, just in case.

Today, when Rodney and I were driving home from the QLD ASWA meeting, coming off the Logon Motorway where it joins the Gold Coast - Brisbane freeway, we spotted two funnels at the base of a congesting cumulus off the coast (east of Beenleigh I'd say). One was pretty well vertical while the one to its right was at an angle of almost 45 degrees. Needless to say, it was a mad dash to find ANY spot to stop and get a better look. By the time we did, it was not even worth videoing the last remaining portion of one of the funnels. The congesting cumulus was probably about 3km in height and quite narrow, with a base around the 1km mark. The funnels extended approximately 200 metres below the base of the cloud. We kept watching as we drove south, but the larger clouds were to the north. I'd say funnels are not uncommon in this region from even the most "ordinary" looking cumulus. regards, Michael ================================================================== Michael Bath mailto:mbath at ozemail.com.au McLeans Ridges co-webmaster: http://australiasevereweather.com/ North Coast NSW webmaster: http://lightningphotography.com/ Australia co-webmaster: http://www.severeweather.asn.au/ Australian Severe Weather Association president ================================================================== +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ To unsubscribe from aussie-weather send e-mail to:majordomo at world.std.com with "unsubscribe aussie-weather your_email_address" in the body of your message. -----------------------jacob at iinet.net.au------------------------------ --- Incoming mail is certified Virus Free.

The write-up started off along the lines of the Twister plot, with a hundred-year storm developing and heading for a sleepy town in Hollywood-Land. Interesting footage maybe? And since I was in advanced SDS I gave it a go. Verdict: Fast forward through the conversation and just watch the 'lightning':) Although there is some memorable dialog. If even this gives you brain cramps, just FF to the very end to learn how to shutdown a severe storm, along with how to power an entire hospital using a building site generator? Useful to know how to do these things. I had a minor concern regarding methods of removal of downed powerlines from a vehicle, but realised that anyone who could even remotely take this movie seriously is probably a nominee for the Darwin Awards anyway :) Ultimately, not as bad as some of the B-Grades I've seen (those are the ones where the entire cast & crew have the same surname)...but it's close. Watch it once. You'll demand your money back :) Pete +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ To unsubscribe from aussie-weather send e-mail to:majordomo at world.std.com with "unsubscribe aussie-weather your_email_address" in the body of your message. -----------------------jacob at iinet.net.au------------------------------ From: "arky dave" To: Subject: aus-wx: Summer 2002 US Report Date: Sun, 15 Sep 2002 22:38:03 -0500 X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.50.4133.2400 Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com
Hello All:
     This is taken from an article in the ARKANSAS DEMOCRAT-GAZETTE on Sat., Sep. 14.
Moderate to extreme drought has affected more than 45% of the country during each of the past 3 months. Nationwide, this Summer-June through August- was the 3rd hottest on record; only 1936 and 1934 were hotter. The Climactic Data Center in Asheville, N.C. reported that the average temperature for the contiguous 48 states was 73.9F(23.2C)., which is 1.8F above normal and 3rd warmest on record. Only the South is expected to be wetter than normal in forecasts through winter. By the end of August, 6 Million  acres of forestland-an area almost the size of New Hampshire-had been consumed by fires. This figure is double the annual damage by forest fires, with costs estimated at $US 1.5 Billion. The 12 months that ended with August were the driest on record for North Carolina, Virginia, Colorado, Arizona, Utah and Nevada. It was 2nd driest on record for South Carolina, Georgia, Maryland, Delaware and Wyoming. The Most Severe drought occurred in July of 1934 when 80% of the US was in moderate to extreme drought.
Enjoy your week    From a dry Mena       David Powell

20.9mm here today, and Dandenong Creek has almost broken its banks for the first time this year.  21.9C at 7am with the temperature dropping back during the day and reaching 9.8C. Gust of (don't laugh) 34kmh - that's actually right.....I missed out on the strong winds except 15m up, where you could hear them in the tops of the trees.
 
Interesting 'hole' in the cloudband over southeast New South Wales.  Talked to my cousin tonight (south of Batemans Bay) & he confirms sky and stars above his head and cloud all around with a northwesterly wind (that's as weather oriented as he gets....)http://www.stormchasers.au.com/2002images/09160704csironsw.gif

Hi All
In the 8 hours to from 4pm to 12am I have had 45mm register in my rain gauge, The Ap has only had 16.8mm and Tuggernong has recieved 19.8mm.
Its not unusual to see such a large difference between My Gauge and the Airport, Due to the fact I am closer to the Western Mts than it.
 
Cheers
Simon

Hi All,
 
So far i have recieved a total of 64mm from 4pm yesterday to 1:30pm today, Still raining on and off here with a couple loud rumbles of thunder with it aswell., so a few more mms is not out of the question.
 
So far this month i have had about 114mm from the Sep 1st storms (50mm) and the past 24hrs (64mm)
 
Other Canberra Sites haven't faired aswell to 9am but its all needed...
From the 11:30am ACT forecast here.
Overnight rain was widespread across the region with many locations receiving
more than 25 mm. In the ACT itself the airport had 29 mm, Tuggeranong 33 mm,
Botanical Gardens 36 mm, Tidbinbilla 29 mm and Bendora Dam 52 mm. The rain eased
early in the morning but some shower activity has continued, whilst winds have
tended moderate southerly.
 
Cheers

It didn't seem like the sort of situation that lent itself to such local variations - was there any specific period when you were getting much higher rainfall rates than the airport? (For those not familiar with Canberra's geography - Simon's location, if I've got it right from his website, is about 4-5km from the Holt site).

In the Dandenongs things looked mid summer like on Sunday, then this morning everything looked so fresh. We had 32mm in Ferny Creek, which is our heaviest 24 hour rain total since October last year. What we really need now is some good follow up rains to get the soil nice and moist in the lead up to summer. Also, pleasing to note that we topped the metro area.... BTW a quirk of the last week is that in the Dandenongs we have gone from winter to summer to winter. Of course last Tuesday we had snow flurries, the weekend was baking dry with a screaming NW wind, while this morning was again cold enough for sleet (if not snow) about the highest peaks.

Hi all, well we have had rain all day here at Cessnock.  Very much needed as well.  Right now we have just had a small hail storm and  there is lightning flashing about the place.  Just what we needed.

Tcrit = x + y where x = -93.9 + 4.92 ln(p) + 0.45 ln(p)^2 y = 0.30 RH% - 0.0074 (RH%)^2 + 0.000053 (RH%)^3 Perhaps someone with the programing skills can create a little program like the snow forecast utility ?

Missing from the list, though, is Mt Buller which has had 38.8mm from midnight to noon with a temp range of -1.7 to +1.3, the latter occurring at noon. I would have thought that it would be a strong contender for Likely SNOW! Mt Buller seems to be getting the best of the WNW flow, as Falls Ck and Hotham have only had 7.2 and 19.8 in the same period.

What is a fohn wind effect?
 
Although the day was mostly cloudy across Victoria, the strong winds kept
recorded maximum temperatures to about average in most parts, although as much

about the far east Gippsland coast due to a fohn wind effect.

        Hope everyone's having a grand September.
In an article today (Wed., Sep. 18) in the ARKANSAS DEMOCRAT-GAZETTE was a story of plants blossoming out-of-season due to drought stress. Spring-blooming Magnolias and azaleas were mentioned in the article. Does this happen in Australia/New Zealand?

When moist air is mechanically forced to rise (by say the Great Dividing Range) it cools at 6 C/km until the moisture starts to condense out. Once the parcel rises enough to be considered dry it then cools at 10 C/km. The Fohn effect occurs when a parcel ascends at the moist rate and descends on the opposite side of the ranges as a dry parcel (warming at 10 C/km) so picture a 2000 m rise (across the divide)...a parcel could cool (adiabatically) at 6 C/km for 2 kms and be 12 C cooler at the top of the divide. Now it is dry however and descends at 10 C/km. It reaches the coast on the other side of the divide some 20 C warmer than at the top and consequently (since it cooled 12 C rising and heated 20 C descending) 8 C warmer than at the same level on the other side of the mountains! This effect causes the Gippsland area to be nicknamed the Victorian riviera in winter. This has been a fairly simplistic explanation...I'm sure somebody will fill you in about the complexities of parcel mixing etc...

A parcel is dry until it condenses and then is wet. So it initially cools at 10C/km, then slows to 6C/km after reaching the LCL (lifted condensation level) where moisture condenses. The essence of your email is correct, however the actual temp difference will depend critically on the LCL. 8C is only correct if the air is foggy at sea level on the windward side of the range. If the LCL is at 1000m (a more normal case) the temp difference will only be 4C.

When moist air is mechanically forced to rise (by say the Great Dividing Range) it cools at 6 C/km until the moisture starts to condense out. Once the parcel rises enough to be considered dry it then cools at 10 C/km. The Fohn effect occurs when a parcel ascends at the moist rate and descends on the opposite side of the ranges as a dry parcel (warming at 10 C/km) so picture a 2000 m rise (across the divide)...a parcel could cool (adiabatically) at 6 C/km for 2 kms and be 12 C cooler at the top of the divide. Now it is dry however and descends at 10 C/km. It reaches the coast on the other side of the divide some 20 C warmer than at the top and consequently (since it cooled 12 C rising and heated 20 C descending) 8 C warmer than at the same level on the other side of the mountains! This effect causes the Gippsland area to be nicknamed the Victorian riviera in winter. This has been a fairly simplistic explanation...I'm sure somebody will fill you in about the complexities of parcel mixing etc...

Bill, Proserpine A little boy walked to and from school daily. Though the weather that morning was questionable, and clouds were forming, he made his daily trek to the elementary school. As the afternoon progressed, the winds whipped up, along with thunder and lightning. The mother of the little boy felt concerned that her son would be frightened as he walked home from school and she herself feared that the electrical storm might harm her child. Following the roar of thunder, lightning would cut through the sky like a flaming sword. Full of concern, the mother quickly got into her car and drove along the route to her child's school. As she did so, she saw her little boy walking along, but at each flash of lightning, the child would stop, look up and smile. Another and another were to follow quickly and with each the little boy would look at the streak of light and smile. When the mother's car drew up beside the child, she lowered the window and called to him, "What are you doing? Why do you keep stopping?" The child answered, "I am trying to look nice. God keeps taking my picture." May God bless you today as you face the storms that come your way. +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ To unsubscribe from aussie-weather send e-mail to:majordomo at world.std.com with "unsubscribe aussie-weather your_email_address" in the body of your message. -----------------------jacob at iinet.net.au------------------------------ From: Blair Trewin Subject: Re: aus-wx: Fohn wind?

The Fohn refers specifically to upper > Rhine Valley and adjacent regions > don White Capitalised, yes, but fohn (small f) is also used as a generic term for winds of this type. Fohn-type winds can be found, particularly in winter and spring, on any part of the Australian coast that is in the lee of a mountain range in an airstream which originally had some moisture. NSW coastal westerlies are the best example of this, but in a NW or WNW flow Gippsland experiences it; eastern Tasmania can also experience it in westerlies. Note that, if the fohn effect is working properly, the temperatures on the lee side will be somewhat HIGHER than those at comparable elevations on the windward side. For example, yesterday, maximum temperatures in the Riverina were mostly 14-15, whereas on the coast from Sydney southwards they were 19-23 (and the elevation difference only explains 1-2 degrees of the difference on its own). A necessary precondition for a fohn effect is that the air is sufficiently moist to reach saturation at some point in crossing the mountain range. Hence the Santa Ana isn't a true fohn, as the air is originally quite dry before reaching the Californian mountains - rather its effect is to bring inland conditions to the coast by over-riding the sea breeze and/or forcing the cool marine layer out to sea. In that sense it's comparable to a summer pre-frontal day in Sydney.

Snow fell to 150m overnight, settled lightly to about 200m. However it receded a bit this morning but heavy snow has been falling on and off to about 300-350m during the day. Most places around 350m had 2-4 inches of snow and some places around 450m reported (I also saw first hand) 10 inches (Particually Neika-Fern Tree both of which are toward the southern or left hand side of Mt Wellington as you see it in the images). Otherwise 6 inches was far more common depth at 450m. Most of the central highways to the west coast were closed as was the Old Huon highway that runs through Fern Tree. A number of other roads were slipperly and Caution was advised including the Midlands highway (the major link between the north and south), the Southern Outlet (heads over Mt Nelson to Kingston) and the new Houn Highway at Vinces Saddle/Lower Longley (highest point from Kingston to Hounville). In Hobart it's been sleeting on and off all day and looks set to record a max of about 8 after a low of 2 last night. Appears to be clearing now and quite a bit of snow in lower areas is melting, Mount Wellington looks a treat with guesses suggesting 40cm since yesterday morning (the heaviest cover this year). More cold changes are on the way, but it's doubtful we'll see a repeat given the time of year and the fact last week actually produced a colder system that was too dry, otherwise low lying areas (<400m) would have been snowed in twice in 9 days.

Yes three years of Latin learning at my boarding school .. Sherborne Prep.. Dorset.... England......at the tender age of 8 onward...... Amos , amas, amat  amamus, amant etc... indeed.. Not only that, but  I topped the class at this...  can't remember much of it now. It was all about translating useful sentances like " Caesar will guide the warriors over the hills ...etc "... very useful  ... You must have had the same study text as me ......... I did six years of French also... !
 
Please don't ask for any weather translations though ! Far too hard.

Most of the trees in my local area are evergreen and follow pretty much set cycles. The callistemons ( bottle brush ) in my front garden will flower in the next week or so, but that is not out of season.
 
Deciduous trees like the Peach tree in my back garden do however seem to be more reactionary to seasonal differences, it is starting to blossom at present, which is about the normal time, but it has been later and earlier. The fruit also varies early to late January.
 
My real litmus test for warm winters however is whether tomato plants self seed and keep growing and fruiting in winter. Because I do not get frost this will happen in warm winters.

In an article today (Wed., Sep. 18) in the ARKANSAS DEMOCRAT-GAZETTE was a story of plants blossoming out-of-season due to drought stress. Spring-blooming Magnolias and azaleas were mentioned in the article. Does this happen in Australia/New Zealand?

We had lots of fun(?) translating (read memorising for exams) Caesar's Gallic Wars...and all I can remember now was that when Caesar arrived in the territory of the Gauls he observed that the Veneti had very tall ships, or something like that. Anyway here's a couple of weather translations :
 
Frigus in quo ros apparet = Dewpoint (lit. 'Cold in which dew appears')
 
Frigus venti = windchill factor
Index caloris = heat index
and for something they didn't have then
Charta a satellitibus extraterrestrialibus = visible satelltie map

Yes three years of Latin learning at my boarding school .. Sherborne Prep.. Dorset.... England......at the tender age of 8 onward...... Amos , amas, amat  amamus, amant etc... indeed.. Not only that, but  I topped the class at this...  can't remember much of it now. It was all about translating useful sentances like " Caesar will guide the warriors over the hills ...etc "... very useful  ... You must have had the same study text as me ......... I did six years of French also... !
 
Please don't ask for any weather translations though ! Far too hard.

I think G. Julius Caesar would have found it handy talking to those Gauls as they passed each other in the Alps (and as their knowledge of the weather would have been a bit less scientific than ours)...

Hello Everybody:
       Ahhhhh...Rain, Glorious Rain.....Today, Thur., the 19th, the proximity of a Canadian cold front gave us 2.05IN(52.0 mm) rain. I was so happy, I walked around in it. This is the most daily rain since April 7th. Hopefully, this'll get us out of the countywide burn ban. WOOHOO!!! I also enjoyed the nasty-looking scud etc. moving from west-to-east. I don't usually get this overly excited but it's been very dry lately. The front will knock down our humidity and put our lows into the 50sF. Well, I was just so happy, I had to tell someone!!!(It also rained twice=1.00IN+1.05IN). Now I know how ya'll must feel when your "wet" season kicks in.
Have a great week!!!
           Wet and loving it       Yours       David Powell

Hello All:
       Well, the AWS at Mena Airport is working properly again. During the rainstorm today(Thur., Sep 19) I called and the report was: Ceiling 300' Broken, 900' Broken, 1,300' Overcast. With my naked eye, I could only see one cloud layer; My question: Does this report mean that there are cloud layers that I don't see? (The vis was 1and3/4MI, heavy rain, 72F, baro 29.67"). When clear(or high clouds) the report is: No clouds below 12,000'. What is the significance of 12,000'?

Hi Arky.
Good to see you have had some useful rain at last.. The information you obtained from the airport is specified for aircraft, it is important for the pilots to know the various levels of cloud for improved vision and so on, from the ground in rain most of the cloud elements are often hidden by the rain and or the low cloud decks, at higher altitudes the presence of cloud layers can present problems with icing above the freezing level, especially if a pilot encounters a thick band of supercooled water droplet cloud cloud above the freezing level (FZL). regards Clyve Herbert.

Hello David
 
It might relate to knowing conditions under the transition level and transition altitude. Below this modern aircraft do most of  their manoeuvring for landing, after takeoff or instrument approaches/departures.
 
There is a world standard for aviation rules but each country modifies these rules to suit its own conditions.
In Australia when climbing, you have QNH (sea level pressure) set on the altimeter, as you pass through 10000' (transition altitude) you change to standard pressure 1013hpa. You then pass through flight levels as you climb.
On decent as you pass through FL 110 (the transition level, 11000' with 1013hpa set on the altimeter) you change to QNH and maintain the QNH setting for the rest of the flight below 10000'.
 
Cruising between 10000' altitude and FL110 is not recommended to aid collision avoidance.
In New Guinea the transition altitude is 15000' or 16000' because they have mountainous terrain.

Hello Fellow Wx Mates:
       Thanks for your answers about cloud layers. My final question: Under certain conditions, the Mena Apt.

Just what is density altitude?

Hello David
 
Try here.
 
Density altitude effects aircraft performance. There is no simple density altitude instrument but you can find the relevant numbers by relating pressure to temperature on a table or graph.

Yeah, just getting out of bed...LOL!! (inside joke for some on the list) I'm not too sure if this high pressure region should be as unusual as we make it out to be. As most will know, lower air pressures are over the land at 4pm when there is the maximum amount of surface heating, while over the water the air pressure remains essentially unchanged. So, the high pressure is merely the result of the air pressures around it decreasing. And if you look at the data below, you'll notice that all locations are under the influence of sea breezes in that region, ie Gove has southeasterlies, Burketown/Mornington Island have northerlies, Weipa/Kowanyama on Cape York have westerlies. With sea breezes comes cooler air, and so a higher pressure compared to points further inland. You can see that the higher air pressures are for stations closer to the centre of the Gulf, ie Mornington Island, and presumably Northeast Island. > > Location...Time...Wind...Speed...Temp...Pressure > ALYANGULA 1500 N /005 31 1011.9 > SWEERS IS 1500 N /005 28 1012.2 > CENTRE IS 1800 NE /014 27 1011.8 > BURKETOWN P.O 1800 N /011 29 1011.7 > COCONUT IS 1800 SE /013 25 1011.3 <-not sea breeze affected > CAPE WESSEL 1900 ESE/008 25 1011.7 > NORTHEAST IS 1900 E /008 25 1012.9 > MORNINGTON IS 1900 N /005 24 1012.8 > BURKETOWN AP 1900 N /007 25 1012.2 > KOWANYAMA 1900 W /007 25 1012.1 > HORN IS 1900 ESE/011 25 1012.0 <-not sea breeze affected > GOVE 1930 SE /006 24 1012.6 > WEIPA AP 1930 WSW/004 26 1012.5 > Cheers -- Robert A.

Dear All,
 
This morning brought us a very dense fog at Mona Vale,  NSW, finally blowing away around 9 am.  We have lived in this house since 1976 and have never seen anything like it in all of those years.  A neighbour down the street who has lived here for over 40 years was also surprised.  We went up to Palm Beach and found that the National Parks Heliocopter had landed on the grass area because of lack of visibility. 
 
Now we are waiting to see what the end of the day brings !!!!!

Special Weather Advisory 

SPECIAL WEATHER ADVISORY FOR SOUTHLAND OTAGO CANTERBURY MARLBOROUGH
WELLINGTON WAIRARAPA THE CENTRAL PLATEAU

ISSUED BY METSERVICE AT 15:12pm Monday 23-Sep-2002

A SHORT BUT SHARP OUTBREAK OF WINTER IN SPRING

MetService forecasters are concerned about what could be quite a
nasty outbreak of winter in the south and east of the South Island on
Tuesday afternoon, and in the south and east of the North Island on
Wednesday.
A very cold southerly blast will develop windchills in many areas as
cold as -5 degrees, and bring snow to low levels over Southland and
Otago Tuesday afternoon, and to Canterbury Tuesday night. The most
significant snow is most likely occur over higher terrain exposed to
the southerly winds.

Forecast  : 
FOR SOUTHLAND AND OTAGO
>From the Kakanui Mountains to the Catlins and the hills and ranges of
Southland, west to the Eyre Mountains and the Takatimus. As much as
10 to 15cm of snow is likely to accumulate down to
400 metres with lesser amounts to near sea level from Tuesday evening.
Windchills to -5 degrees are likely. 
These wintry conditions will likely cause problems on the north
Dunedin Motorway and other roads through these areas.
Conditions are expected to improve through Wednesday.

FOR CANTERBURY
>From Tuesday night to about midday Wednesday, accumulations of 5 to
10 cm of snow are possible above about 400 metres, with lighter falls
down to about 200 metres. The cold southerly winds will generate
windchills in the zero to -5C range in many areas.

NORTH OF CANTERBURY
Cold southerlies will bring snow to quite low levels from the
Kaikoura ranges to the central and eastern North Island ranges later
on Wednesday. 
Forecasters will be paying particular attention to whether a
southerly gale may develop Wednesday night. This is likely to bring
chilling southerly gales, high windchills and a burst of heavy
precipitation to the east coast of the North Island.

Farmers and other members of the public are urged to stay up to date
with the latest weather forecasts as the weather picture clarifies.

The next Special Weather Advisory will be issued by 10:28 Tuesday
24-Sep-2002

So far I've looped it about 263 times :) Similar weather occurred in SE Qld but it was unfortunate that it was mostly fast moving and therefore rain totals weren't very high. In Logan I scored 8.5mm, 30kn outflow winds (about 3.15pm) tiny hail and absolutely brilliant CG lightning! The lightning seemed to be mostly concentrated right in my area - about 15 or so CGs nearby. One especially close one took out the power for a while. It's always nice when storms move in to cool the area down, like it did today. Doesn't look too good for the next few days with temps in the 30's expected to continue and fine weather. I'll be watching the sky just in case :) James Brisbane Storms http://members.ozemail.com.au/~jamestorm/bristorm.html > Some impressive storms on the NSW North Coast this afternoon.

That is an impressive timelapse, even if it is 412km in size hehe, took me from last night until now to download it! Playing it slowly frame by frame shows up everything clear, just how that thing dumped its load! Unreal. Certainly was eventful up here considering all the people suffering from severe SDS. I was a little annoyed at starting work right as it hit, but managed to see what appeared to be a very ragged shelf cloud, certainly saw hailshafts/rainshafts as it passed just a couple of kilometres to the south of me and multiple Cg's, Flangs that were rocking the foundations of the factory, literally. I did my best to try video some of it but in the end ran out of time and didnt get bugger all to be honest.

Hi all. Interesting to see the amplification of a mid/upper level trough over eastern NSW this morning, its unfortunate the lower levels are a little on the dry side, but worth keeping a check on, also some respectable radar returns south east of Victor Harbour  along the cold front although this cloud band appears to be a bit complex possibly an upper cold pool mixing into the set-up. regards Clyve Herbert.

I have seen video footage of cyclonically rotating tornadoes with a twin tornado rotating anticyclonically within a complex meso (in the States) I presume this would not qualify as a FUJIWHARA set-up,however I have also seen (on video) two cyclonically rotating tornadoes rotating about each other, but careful study shows what appears to be two separate meso lows and it appears that the two meso lows are doing the Fujiwharra 'thing'. To make things a little more complex when two tornadoes are rotating about each other and one is an anticyclonic spinner this does not mean that the anticyclonic meso partner is not a meso low! both the cyclonic and anticyclonic rotating mesos are infact low pressure systems. I have been studying a video of a tornadic thunderstorm over Geelong in October 2001.This particular storm produced funnels over a period of about 90 minutes!, what I found in the video footage is what appears to be a cyclonic rotation in the wall cloud curtain and an anticyclonically rotating funnel!!!. best wishes Clyve Herbert. ----- Original Message ----- From: Richard Modistach To: Sent: Friday, September 27, 2002 7:26 AM Subject: Re: aus-wx: Fw: FUJIWHARA: Your word of the day from www.yourdictionary.com > it seems like this is something that would occurr with tornadoes, moreso in > the u.s. > > regards > richard > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Chas & Helen Osborn" > To: "Aussie weather" > Sent: Thursday, September 26, 2002 9:45 PM > Subject: aus-wx: Fw: FUJIWHARA: Your word of the day from > www.yourdictionary.com > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: > To: > Sent: Thursday, September 26, 2002 7:47 PM > Subject: FUJIWHARA: Your word of the day from www.yourdictionary.com > > > > > > Today's Word: Fujiwhara (Noun) > > > > Pronunciation: [fu-jee-'wahr-ê] > > > > Definition 1: The Fujiwhara Effect is an interaction of tropical cyclones > within about 700 nautical miles of each other, where the storms "link arms" > and rotate around a common midpoint.

It makes the forecasting of the track of any individual storm quite a challenge. One storm acting all alone is hard enough to predict with accuracy, but when two or three get going in a dance, I cease trying to predict and just sit back and watch the experts' forecasts and wait and see who will be right. When you are looking at the past tracks of individual storms, the tracks can sometimes look like nonsense until you realise that there was another storm in the area doing a dance with it. We had some great examples of Fujiwara dances in the region earlier this year.

is the area of enhanced vorticity that shows up in this satpic to the southwest of Mt Gambier at 1730 the upper cold pool you mentioned this morning?

First Post,
 
Couldn't help myself,  but we had quite an amazing hail storm in North Fitzroy (about 5km NE of Melb) about 3/4 hr ago. Lasted for about 5 minutes  One CC flash and Tom Bowler size hail (the largest I've ever seen) mixed in with cascades of pea size.  Sounded like a 1000 possums on the tin roof.  The street is a blanket of white - look like XMas in Europe.  No wind and rain/hail falling vertically.  Cell seemed to develop very quickly to my NW and was on the tail end of a lighter, weakening shower.
 
There is obviously some very cold air aloft at the moment.
 
Heres hoping for more.

This led to some interesting cloud here today, no rain as the lower atmosphere was too dry, but we had mid level convection of sorts, the weak convection was picked up by strong mid level winds and left sweeping trails of virga many kilometres downstream.

Following train N161 (V28/12) which left woy woy on time at 1648 was eased up onto the rear to push N257 to gosford. As 257 was tabled to stop at Tascott and Point clare, the train made a very slow and slippery start out of the platform. Eventually the amalgamated trains made it to gosford about an hour late, with the front cars detraining and the rear passengers detraining from the first car of the set as only it was on the platform........gosford station was a scene of chaos! Both N257 and N161 were terminated at Gosford, with many trains banked up behind including NT1 Brisbane XPT. Regards, BK __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

I have uploaded a few shots of the cloud/virga around Canberra today. No rain here either due to the dryness of the air.

This led to some interesting cloud here today, no rain as the lower atmosphere was too dry, but we had mid level convection of sorts, the weak convection was picked up by strong mid level winds and left sweeping trails of virga many kilometres downstream.

Hi all. Interesting to see the amplification of a mid/upper level trough over eastern NSW this morning, its unfortunate the lower levels are a little on the dry side, but worth keeping a check on, also some respectable radar returns south east of Victor Harbour  along the cold front although this cloud band appears to be a bit complex possibly an upper cold pool mixing into the set-up. regards Clyve Herbert.

Anthony,
I'm interested to find out whether the hail was big enough to cause any damage to cars or not. Yes i'm one of those people that preys for hail because I fix the cars when it does. Any info would be appreciated.

First Post,
 
Couldn't help myself,  but we had quite an amazing hail storm in North Fitzroy (about 5km NE of Melb) about 3/4 hr ago. Lasted for about 5 minutes  One CC flash and Tom Bowler size hail (the largest I've ever seen) mixed in with cascades of pea size.  Sounded like a 1000 possums on the tin roof.  The street is a blanket of white - look like XMas in Europe.  No wind and rain/hail falling vertically.  Cell seemed to develop very quickly to my NW and was on the tail end of a lighter, weakening shower.
 
There is obviously some very cold air aloft at the moment.
 
Heres hoping for more.

Hi all night owls. Looking interesting over southeast Aus tonight with rather good vorticity associated with a cold pool moving east northeast just southwest of Mt Gambier, the whole of south east Australia looks favoured for the development of a low pressure system. The cold pool has a 500hpa temp of about -30c not too bad for this time of the year...and now for a wish forecast...I will dream on that one Goodnight everybody...regards Clyve Herbert.

Hi All,
I noticed on the weather zone list that Andrew mentioned about a storm at Guyra yesterday. The BOM 3pm obs did mention a hail storm at Guyra. I have just got off the phone with Jeff (Guyra Observer)....
Jeff told me that the hail was about the size of a 5 cent coin, and it was coming down heavly... and the rainfall from this storm was 11.4mm. There was also some wind that accompanied the storm.

Yeah, that was a very interesting line that started off running from Glen Innes to Guyra and ended up from Grafton to Coffs and ofcourse was associated with the massive storm Steve chased. The WW code in the 3pm Guyra synop was 99XXTSSA and had been modified from 96TSGR. That indicates that there was raised sand ahead of the storm, the storm itself being 'heavy with hail'.
 
There was no plain language with it so it was nice to have 'the official word', thanks Sam.
 
Andrew.

Hi all... Well, surprise,surprise, The thermal trough has just passed through central Victoria, about 1045 my air temp fell to 6c here at Leopold with light to moderate rain, I nearly choked on my marmalade toast when sleet started to fall, sleet fell for about 5 minutes and then changed to rain very rapidly although the rain still contained bits of soft ice, looks like this air will be cold enough to bring a few flakes to the Dandenong's..regards Clyve Herbert.

Hi all... Well, surprise,surprise, The thermal trough has just passed through central Victoria, about 1045 my air temp fell to 6c here at Leopold with light to moderate rain, I nearly choked on my marmalade toast when sleet started to fall, sleet fell for about 5 minutes and then changed to rain very rapidly although the rain still contained bits of soft ice, looks like this air will be cold enough to bring a few flakes to the Dandenong's..regards Clyve Herbert.

Hi all. Interesting to see the amplification of a mid/upper level trough over eastern NSW this morning, its unfortunate the lower levels are a little on the dry side, but worth keeping a check on, also some respectable radar returns south east of Victor Harbour  along the cold front although this cloud band appears to be a bit complex possibly an upper cold pool mixing into the set-up. regards Clyve Herbert.

Hi everyone,
 
Our weather station recorded 100 kph wind gust today in Golden Grove associated with shower with 10 mins mean speed of 22 kph which is too far off. If its 50 kph 10 mins mean wind speed or 1 min with 100 kph gust then I can accept it as a record. Still Unconfirmed one though. I thought it might have to be static problem, so I checked every house hold light and appliance to fiddle with it and nothing happened that it affect the Vantage Pro Console. So in late afternoon I had to check in nearby area in about within 1 square km of our area for any damaged and I did found fresh one, one of 8 ft tall baby pine tree been snapped more than half off and inside of that pine wood is fresh. Few fresh small branches down. I found a big tree down too down the Bicentennail court. But it was an old damaged from last time more likely as I saw the leafs dying off. On 24th of September, we got 81 kph gust from a heavy thunderstorm.
 
From Nathan.

The spiral on the radar of the low at around 1300 was good though.

Thanks Dave.
 
The building with the flagpole is Australia's Parliament House - the equivalent of Congress in Washington DC.
 
As Peter said the spire is Black Mountain tower - a telecommunications/transmitting tower with a lookout/cafe and revolving restaurant two thirds of the way up. It would be a good storm vantage point except that there is a charge to go up there and it is also a very good lightning attractor (providing a charge of a different kind!!). I have seen a few nice shots of lightning striking the tower - its one of the "classic" weather shots to get around Canberra.
 
Cheers,
 
Patrick

Well, surprise,surprise, The thermal trough has just passed through central Victoria, about 1045 my air temp fell to 6c here at Leopold with light to moderate rain, I nearly choked on my marmalade toast when sleet started to fall, sleet fell for about 5 minutes and then changed to rain very rapidly although the rain still contained bits of soft ice, looks like this air will be cold enough to bring a few flakes to the Dandenong's..regards Clyve Herbert.

I had a lot of e-mails as the Cyclones Group discussed it during July, but they have all been deleted. Here is an Excerpt from Gary Padgett's July report which you may read in full here http://66.40.4.61/garyp_mgtcs/jul02.txt if you have plenty of time to spare: ======= Shortly before mid-month, Tropical Storm Fengshen sprang to life in the Marshall Islands area and quickly intensified into a typhoon. Fengshen reached super typhoon intensity at 18/0000 UTC and maintained that status for 120 hours, setting a new record for super typhoon longevity. The previous record of 114 hours was set by Typhoon Joan in 1997. Fengshen passed well north of the Marianas Islands and approached Japan, but had weakened significantly by the time it neared Kyushu. The weakening residual depression limped ashore in eastern China. While Fengshen was still well east of the Marianas, Typhoon Fung-wong formed northwest of the islands and the two storms engaged in a Fujiwhara interaction with Fung-wong describing a large counterclockwise loop. While Fengshen and Fung-wong were performing their do-si-do, Tropical Depression Juan moved through the central Philippines. JTWC upgraded the system to minimal tropical storm status for just one warning cycle. ======= I cannot remember off the top of my head whether there was any further discussion of the Fujiwara effect in the individual storm detailed reports.

She knows I am into the weather so she took it for me. She said that that day there were quite a few. A number of friends from school were at the beach that day and also witnessed them. There's another shot with a waterspout, but it had all her friends in it in front of the spout, so she didn't want to put it online. Those waters off the coast there would see a lot of spouts I imagine, but these were apparently quite good ones!

This can be an annoying problem when the file name has been truncated by the email list's wrapping function and you'll be missing the last 2 letters. Hopefully this (clear as mud ) procedure will help anyone finding this sort of thing a nuisance...... If you see something like this, http://www.australiasevereweather.com/photography/photos/2002/0415cs01.j pg 1. click on the link in the email (which will get most of the filename into your browser's "Address" field) 2. go back to the email and copy & paste the missing bit of the filename (see under the link above - it's the 'pg' on the next line) onto the end of what is now in Internet Explorers "Address" field at the top of your screen (to find out where the end of the filename is so you know where to paste the missing bit - click on the filename once to highlight it, and then again to unhighlight it and then use your right arrow to move to the right hand end so you can see where to paste the missing bit), 3. voila - it should work !! You'll find this happens a lot with long filenames - always check the next line in the email to see if there's a missing bit that needs to be copied and pasted onto the end of the filename if a page won't load as it should.

I also chase in Tornado Alley, http://eclipse.span.ch/tornado.htm 2000 http://eclipse.span.ch/tornadoalley.htm 2001 http://eclipse.span.ch/twister.htm 2002 and see http://eclipse.span.ch/lightnin.htm and http://eclipse.span.ch/stormpix.htm for some lightning images. I am coming to Australia for the december 4 total eclipse, and also to chase storms with Jimmy Deguara and Thunderbolt tour. I will report at http://eclipse.span.ch/eclipse.htm . >(the >funny colours are the result of the polariser and the plane window) yes, that happens. May I suggest another way to photograph (or film) clouds from plane to avoid the polariser colour: use black-and-white film (or video in black and white mode) . And to increase contrast, use a red filter (if part of the blue sky is visible, it will turn black ). >If you're getting on a plane this season, please take your camera with >you!!

It was probably not big enough. It ranged from pea to bean size. It damaged a few flowers in my backyard though. I actually have some of it in my freezer to show my Mum when she gets back from overseas. There was a fatality at the time of the hailstorm in Noble Park. A male driver in his early 20s died.

the same question for you about the hail was it big enough and hard enough to cause any damage to cars?

Just had the biggest hailstorm I have seen at my place here in North Dandenong for 7 years. Hail up to 1.5cm in diameter. The storm lasted for about 5 minutes. Flashes of lightning as well. Awesome.
 
Interestingly BoM hasn't issued a warning for it yet.

Date: Mon, 30 Sep 2002 09:24:45 +1000 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2655.55) Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com OK maybe I'm still recovering from the "excitement" of seeing rain in Melbourne over the weekend - when was the last "wet" weekend? - but I think the front for the middle of the week (Wednesday) certainly bares watching. While this might not look so impressive, there is a tongue of significant moisture off the western Australian coast at present, extending from near Indonesia to around Shark Bay. The approaching front has an associated upper trough which extends well into this region, and should provide for a good draw of tropical moisture towards Victoria in advance of this front. The trough also tends slow right down on Wednesday, which could see the associated cloud band take a good time to pass through. The BIG question is will it be precipitating much. Personally, I wouldn't be surprised to see a reasonable thundery rainband develop (this bears some similarities with the system of two weeks ago)... anyway one to watch. BTW 20mm of rain to report from Ferny Creek on the weekend, with our second coldest maximum of the year on Saturday with just 7.2C. No snowflakes or sleet, but plenty of graupel on Saturday evening (granular snow). Things are now finally balanced in terms of how green/damp things are going into summer. We have had ~70mm in two weeks, which means that any rain we get in the next ~week should start to soak the soil quite deeply.. the big question is whether we will get much.

Water storages out here in the Wimmera Mallee have been low for quite some years. After being on our 3rd...or I think 4th year...who can remember, but we've been on Stage 1 restrictions for quite some time here, with some towns in the Wimmera on Stage 2 restrictions. At the moment, we currently have 4 storages completely dry, with another 3 under 10%, and Wimmera Mallee water has said unless we get some much need rain soon, then in May next year, they are looking at the Wimmera Mallee catchments only holding 5% capacity. Have a look at http://www.wmwater.org.au/updates/storage.asp for the rest of the Wimmera Mallee figures. How's things looking out your way Richard....not too good I'm assuming. Most of the crops North of here have been given up on...we're only "just" holding on here, but without good rains soon, the rest of the Wimmera is going to be in major trouble. Alot of the farmers around here are praying for 25mm in the next week or two...after that, then it looks like it will be shot out here. What are the conditions like further North into Western NSW??? Anyone on the list from that side??? Hoping this week bring some much needed rains.

im running a 1400mhz AMD, 256meg DDR ram, with xp home, i multitask the hell out of it and it just rocks along, i've got an optical mouse, the cursor locks up every now and then, not sure wether it's the mouse driver, xp or a hardware problem.
