Satpic this morning is interesting, it shows a nice cold pool of air sitting in SW NSW, appears to be moving NE. Woomera and Cobar both had -18C at 500mb last night on their soundings, -19.5C at 500mb on the Wagga sounding. Yesterday saw Mt Gambier have -24C at 500mb! If you look at some of the progs, it pushes the cold pool into NW NSW (-21 to -22C at 500mb) later today! Then pushes it over NE NSW/SE QLD tomorrow (Friday) - it weakens it a bit, but -19 to -20C at 500mb is quite considerable! Even with SE'lies there'll be a chance of storms (similar to about 10 days ago when another cold pool drifted into the Downs). AVN is progging some moderate instability if you look at the LIS over NE NSW/SE QLD (-3 to -4) although because the instability is primarily at the cold pool, basically wherever the cold pool goes, that'll be around the best area for storms! However, as usual when you sit underneath the cold pool, shear won't be that crash hot on Friday (ie <15 knots until 300mb...). Still worth keeping an eye out for! Some slow moving storms (or even showers) could produce some reasonable hail, hopefully over or close to my place as I'm working in the afternoon! -- Anthony Cornelius Vice President & Queensland Coordinator of the Australian Severe Weather Association (ASWA) 0417 759 304 http://www.severeweather.asn.au +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ To unsubscribe at 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------------------------------ at : "Ken Ring" To: Subject: Re: aus-wx: Melbourne rain Date: Thu, 1 May 2003 17:42:29 +1200 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 ABC ONline Regional forecast for Melbourne, Franston, Geelong etc..

A few storms have developed on radar - lightning off to my NW at some cells that were in the pink before (green now). Also a line of showers and storms in the Downs (probably the line you saw way out west yesterday afternoon Jeff) - might check the ASWA radar achives to confirm this though. But if so, it's done well to survive that long! The satpic shows a fair amount of cloud over the SE corner though at all of the convection that has developed yesterday afternoon/overnight. Hopefully it clears for today! Main thing is shear is quite weak so it may not do so, but the Downs should be clear. Regardless there should be some storm activity around, especially if stuff has developed at night when it's cold! (Well, 18/16 here) - ooer, thunder!! Cells back in the pink again on Bris local...

Interesting photos. I had a look at the upper air soundings for the day and they didn't look terribly interesting. As you would expect in Belgium in spring, a low CAPE environment and there was no sign of wind shear. Deep SW flow. This cb was likely to have come on a frontal line perhaps.

Spring has sprung here too Jane. The blue skies of winter have been replaced by grey skies, occasional thunderstorms, but mainly lots of fine drizzle and super high humidity. May is the month during which our RH here most often reaches 100%. As it is also beginning to get hotter, if you work out of doors, you tend to stink at less than two or three showers a day. I am most thankful for air-conditioning at both home and work!

It caused the experts at the time to speculate that theoretically, such a typhoon, if the steering currents were right, could actually cross the Equator. But as this is a once in 400 years kind of weather event, I suppose none of us will be around to see the next one.

All the action was on the other side of the mountains apart at that first rumble. The Thunderstorm Warning was hoisted at 18:05 and lowered at 00:05 and hoisted again at 02:30 and is still up now, but we actually had a very quiet night here. We had 30mm in the past 24h, all ahead of that rumble I heard yesterday afternoon, and Tseung Kwan O, 12km away on the other side of the mountains has had 200mm, most of it since that rumble. I am heading off to church soon, so it will probably all start happening again while church is on. Regarding the comparison with Singapore, we get hardly any thunder compared to them, but we do have a lot of typhoons most years. Singapore (only a few miles at the Equator for those who don't know) got its once in 400 years typhoon in December 2001.

A little station in the mountains a few km North East of Kam Tin had a tiny circle of 500-600mm shading around it on the 00:00-10:00 Isohyet chart. Now it has been removed at the 00:00-21:00 Isohyet chart. The whole of that area is now shown as 400-500mm. I have no idea exactly where that little station is or what may be around it. Several stations around it received between 400 and 500. Further back all around they had between 300 and 400. Practically the whole of NW NT, SW NT and all of Lamma Island got between 200 and 300 or higher. The rain out in those parts reportedly ceased around 10:00am. Since then there has been significant falls in the South, so Stanley which had received less than 5mm during 00:00-10:00 has received 100-150 during 00:00-21:00. Everywhere you go, everything's flooded and everything's dripping even between each of the squalls. Not good camping or hiking weather. The Thunderstorm and Landslip warnings are both still current, the Rainstorm and Flooding warnings have both been lowered. Current Rainfall report: ================================= THE MAXIMUM RAINFALL RECORDED IN VARIOUS REGIONS IN THE PAST HOUR ENDING AT 8:45 P.M. WERE: SOUTHERN DISTRICT 84 MM; EASTERN DISTRICT 26 MM; SAI KUNG 18 MM; LAMMA ISLAND 10 MM; SHA TIN 6 MM; KOWLOON WEST 4 MM; WAN CHAI 4 MM; LANTAU ISLAND 3 MM; KOWLOON EAST 3 MM; TUEN MUN 3 MM; CENTRAL & WESTERN DISTRICT 2 MM. ================================= Souther District, Eastern District, Wan Chai and Central & Western District are all on Hong Kong Island. Current Forecast: ================================= Bulletin updated at 20:45 HKT 05/May/2003 Here is the latest weather bulletin issued by the Hong Kong Observatory. A trough of low pressure brings rain and thunderstorms to the coastal areas of Guangdong. Locally, the heavy rain today brought more than 100 millimetres of rainfall to most parts of the territory. Those recorded at Yuen Long, Kam Tin, Shek Kong, Tai Po, Fanling and Tai Lam Chung even exceeded 350 millimetres. Weather forecast for tonight and tomorrow Cloudy with some showers, heavy at times with a few squally thunderstorms tonight and tomorrow morning. Temperatures will range between 24 and 27 degrees. Moderate southerly winds. Outlook: Weather improving midweek. ================================== My dad would've said, "It's bloody good weather for ducks!"

Unfortunately with these fast moving situations, people were killed. The National Weather Service did in there warnings indicate a great potential for strong to violent tornadoes to develop in stronger storms based on the Relative Helicity and lowest level shear dynamics. They were also predicting long lived supercells and in some cases many supercells to develop. In these situations I guess, everything just develops and begins to rotate all the way at top to ground. It is a humble experience just thinking about these situations certainly nothing like we get here. I suppose we are lucky in that respect.

Hi all.
Have been monitoring the US based wx-chase mailing list, and it looks as if 8/5/03 is going to be a similar setup to 4/5/03. Cape nearing 3000 and li's at -10. a couple of AVN forecasts are here:
CAPE
 
 
Jimmy's tour group is leaving on the 6th, so should just get onto the plains right in time for this... Good luck!!!!!
 
ALSO. Storm prediction center (SPC) prelim reports graphics.
 

Cheers

Took me a couple of minutes to work out what was happening. The clue was that the sun lined up with the contrail precisely. The plane's contrail left a shadow on the smog, which happened to fall in line with the flight path. Freaky coincidence of geometry. We'd be lucky to see that again soon. As a matter of fact, the contrail drifted out of alignment with the sun a few minutes later, and you could see the shadow beside it... 73 de Tony, VK3JED http://vkradio.com +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ To unsubscribe at 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------------------------------ X-Sender: vk3jed-1 at 192.168.15.1 X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 5.1.1 Date: Tue, 06 May 2003 21:46:54 +1000 To: aussie-weather at world.std.com at : "Tony Langdon (VK3JED)" Subject: Re: aus-wx: Jet flying along its shadow Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com At 08:26 PM 6/05/2003 +0930, you wrote: >Hi Jane, > >Nice pic.

Awesome. One was in multi-vortex mode as well. Been a while since there have been good footage on the news passed across. Keep watching as it seems more tornadoes are expected over the coming days. The wind shear dynamics and incredible instability is combining again for more potential outbreak conditions with strong tornadoes possible. I do get upset when I see deaths like these when there were advanced warnings. This was daytime too??

Howdy & Greetings:
       The tornado that hit rural NE Polk County on the 1st has been classified as an F2. The winds were estimated to reach to 120mph(193kph).  Thankfully, only a couple of barns were damaged with some timber damage. The path of the twister was about 11 miles(17+km) long and the curious thing is that it went at NW to SE--only 9% of Arkansas tornadoes move in that direction. The affected area is a few miles NE of Mena.
Hoping everyone has a Spectacular May
Best Wishes~~~David Powell

Firstly, the upper charts. They show geopotential height, temperature, humidity and winds at 7 levels -- 925, 850, 700, 500, 400, 300 and 250hPa. Try clicking open several windows at once and compare conditions across levels. The charts become available twice daily around 10.45am and 10.45pm, with an update for any late data around 1.45am/pm. I would like to add some fancier stuff, but I'm stuck with the limitations of the current version of Digital Atmosphere at present -- the new one is due out in a month or two. Secondly, there's a set of very large (but fairly quick to download) synoptic charts for each continent. I've made them really large so that you can explore the surface weather in minute detail, with details of rain, temperatures and temp highs and lows, and current weather for thousands of locations all presented in a compact, easy to read form. I know that everyone goes gaga over radar and satpix, but I do love the way a fully plotted synoptic lets you see both the high detail and the broad picture simultaneously. In addition to the continental charts, there are higher scale maps of the US and western Europe -- just a bit late to catch the US tornado event, unfortunately. New charts become available four times daily around 4.45 am/pm and 10.45am/pm, with updates to catch late data 3 hours later, and there's a 24-hour archive. The direct link is http://www.australianweathernews.com/charts.cfm Hope you like them, and, as always, any suggestions gratefully received.

Hello to my Aussie Wx Friends:
      (I know theres more to it than this), I'm not too hip(in the know) on these, so I was wondering if someone could tell me the minimum thresholds of:
CAPE & LI for T-storm development
CAPE & LI for likely T-storm development
CAPE & LI for severe (tornadic) T-storm development
     Thanks for your help. Thankfully, we've missed the severe weather--and most of the rain too. It's Wed morn May 8 here and every day so far this month we've either been in a Severe Thunderstorm Watch or a Tornado Watch.
      I'd also like to wish ALL the moms (mums) out there a lovely Happy Mothers Day!
Best Wishes----Yours~~~David Powell

Absulutely Keith, you can see that plain as day in the storm at the top of the line which straddles the EW state border.  If there was ever a candidate for rotation...    But I've seen this in satpics of Oz storms before too.

This is an awsome sat pic, you can see the full updraft and 'tail' on that last storm to the SW, you can almost "see" the 'nader.

Hi Damian,
 
You could have said before, but do you live in a gulley?  Your two low, night temperatures are more like winter nights. 
It reminds me of when I was a child growing up at Doonside and morning after morning in winter would be much colder than the temperature in nearby Blacktown.  So cold that sometimes the water pipes would freeze.  I can even remember heavy frost occuring on some Anzac Days, and we had to get up and leave early to walk to the station to get to Sydney for the march.

Com Betreff: aus-wx: Storms for central Europe Hi all Some high instability (CAPE ~2000J/kg) and some pretty good shear (10 knts at NW at the surface, 50 knts at the SSW at 300hPa), has resulted in some decent storms over central europe, with a splitting cell passing over Munich. I haven't had time to compile much of a webpage, but a visible sat pic showing the action is here: http://www.meteo.physik.uni-muenchen.de/~robert/Weather/2003_05_08/europe_vi s_1800UT.jpg The cell that passed over Munich is the smaller cell due east of that huge mass of storms right in the middle of the image. And the radar for southern German is shown here: http://www.meteo.physik.uni-muenchen.de/~robert/Weather/2003_05_08/sthn_germ any.gif As the cell passed over Munich near sunset, there were heaps of anvil crawlers along with some pleasant rumbles of thunder.

Well here in "subtropical" (read sub-antarctic) SEQ at Mt Crosby the last two nights have been 10.9C and 10.1C respectively, and we are not in a gully but on a low ridge.  It would have likely been 3C to 4C colder in the gullies.  And yes it feels like winter, with daytime temps really struggling to reach 20C and then only briefly, although today is a little better (22C around town currently).

Again we are heading to the cold weather, especially where in areas where we get alot of snow. We are talking about of course areas like Oberon, Mt Lambie, Orange, Blayney, Bathurst on some occasions like 29 May 2000. My webpage which has been running a couple of years now, will be going again for this winter. This page for many whom dont know about it, will obtain information on snow reports, road closures in the Central Tablelands area. Im now in a new job role, which will enable me to provide even more road reports and snow reports at all over Central Tablelands. Bathurst has already started getting some nice frosts already, 2 in last 2 days. We were down to 2 deg last night. To view my webpage, pls goto http://www.hotkey.net.au/~davidkc/snowreports.html On this page i also have a weather station setup at my house which is only 5 min walk at Mt Panorama. Currently im experiencing a problems with the weather station software in which it locks up. Once this problem has been fixed, the weather station will be up and running most of the time.

On Sunday GASP has the depression further east in Bass Strait with a deep fetch of southerly air to latitude 55. The ECL weakens and is eventually captured. ECM has a much more sluggish pattern with a weak ECL/trough and only a weak low in the Bight. UNISYS has a similar pattern to NOGAPS and AVN but on Sunday there is a westerly stream instead of a S-SW stream. However 2 or 3 days later it comes up with a major cold outbreak of its own at another depression deepening in the Bight and moving rapidly east. A cold upper pool of 548 or so is expected to accompany the whole thing..I would thus expect snow down to at least 1200-1400 metres. One way or another it seems all models expect a major cold outbreak within the next 10 days; timing is the issue. As I recall, in the last 2-3 years we had similar cold snaps towards the end of May.

I have an item on the front page (when you can get on to it) that explains: -------------- The US servers that host AWN continue to go offline at time to time, a situation that does not seem to be getting any better. I am therefore arranging to put AWN's own server directly on the web. This will give me direct control over any problems, allow data to become available faster, and allow substantial expansion of the site. It will be about four weeks before the necessary connections have been made. -------------- By the way, having my own computer directly on the net will also (a) speed up the availability of real time data, as the files are available immediately they're produced, and (b) remove space limitations, as anything on the hard disk can be made available. I don't plan to put huge amounts on the site, but it will be nice not to have to worry about space considerations.

what a load of tripe,
i'll belive it when they're on the ground and up and running,
with inept government policy the way it is funding will be slashed at the last minute as usual and god only knows when it'll happen.
yes it's good news but when you scrape the gloss off the the top it's nothing but a load of crap.

For Friday, further rain and isolated thunderstorms are expected along most of the coast and adjacent ranges with local heavy falls. Spring tides, also known as "King Tides", are current and these could be made worse with a predicted low pressure cell off the NSW coast. While there is potential for local flooding for all coastal areas, at this stage there is a good chance for minor to moderate main river flooding in the following areas over the next 24 to 36 hours : 1. Lower Tweed River 2. Coffs Creek at Coffs Harbour 3. Bellinger River 4. Lower Hastings River 5. Camden Haven Valley 6. Wallis Lake at Forster Tuncurry 7. Woronora River 8. Cooks River 9. Wollongong This Flood Watch means that people living or working along rivers and streams must monitor the latest weather forecasts and warnings and be ready to move to higher ground should flooding develop. Flood Warnings will be issued if Minor Flood Level is expected to be exceeded at key sites along the main rivers for which the Bureau of Meteorology provides a flood warning service. ##################################################################################### This message is intended for the addressee named and may contain confidential information.

IDNP0002 COMMONWEALTH BUREAU OF METEOROLOGY NEW SOUTH WALES REGIONAL OFFICE 300 Elizabeth St. Sydney, Ph [02] 9296 1555; www.bom.gov.au NSW LARGE WAVE WARNING Issued at 4:16pm on Friday the 16th of May 2003 Wave heights of 3.5 to 4.5 metres are expected in the surf zone of east to northeast facing beaches between Williamtown and Wollongong at 10pm this evening until 2am Saturday. The next astronomical high tide at Sydney is 2 metres at 8.30 pm. This is above the normal high tide level. The highest wave heights are now expected to occur later than the occurrence of the king tide, so that there is now less likelihood that large waves will cause problems than thought earlier today.

It has things such as assessing instability, shear and other factors. With detailed information on Skew-Ts, and also gives a description of what a lot of these mean. I've also included numerous case studies which acts a bit like a "thunderstorm forecasting tutorial" (ie it walks you through the setup for the day), and then I give a link so that you can see what actually happened. Anyway...I hope that people find this useful, any comments or feedback are more than welcome...and if you have any questions please feel free to email me! It has a heavy Australian focus, so may not be as handy to you Dave, but it might help you out in some areas still!

You can have a very accurate weather station...but that's no use unless you choose a good location. A cheap weather station is a good location is better than an expensive weather station in a poor location. So consider where you're going to put (ie do you have a stevensen screen...is it out in the open or is it going to be close to buildings that will influence it?) Because if you're going to have things that will offset the accuracy then I would recommend something more modest. But if you have a great location/setup, then getting something more accurate is going to do well. I think quite a few people have DSEs (including me)...I haven't been able to set it up yet, but a few people are happy with them!

If you set up a weather station, try and make it representative of your wider local area(suburb) rather than just your back garden/roof....

Severe Thunderstorm Advice Issued at 7:35pm on Sunday the 18th of May 2003 for the Northern Country and Northeast districts.

Maree Burnie of the California Gully takeaway food store, in the worst-affected northern area of the city, north of Melbourne, said growling thunder preceded the winds of up to 100kph, that ripped through the area. "We had thunder in the distance," Ms Burnie told AAP. "Most people described it as a fast train coming. "The power went off and it just hit. "Basically it's gone through in a path. We weren't far off it. "It was definitely a tornado. You could tell at the way the wind went through and the way the trees were blown down." She said her own home had been lucky to escape the path of destruction left by the tornado. "We were safe. We just missed it, but we saw sheets of iron flying around." A clean-up effort is under way this morning, after power blackouts hampered efforts overnight. Ms Burnie said the area was a mess. "There's bricks everywhere. It's all damaged, houses gone, roofs gone, power lines are still down in some areas," she said. California Gully butcher John Muns said his own home was spared, but houses just 500m away suffered severe damage. "I could see trees swirling around in the air and tin flying, it was going in a circular motion," Mr Muns told AAP. Resident Alan Jensen, who was at home when the tornado came through, causing extensive damage to his house, described it as "a very frightening experience". "We weren't sure where we should stand. We were always lead to believe to make for the bathroom, but in our case the brickwork came down on top of the bathroom - just as well we never made for there," Mr Jensen told ABC Radio. Robyn Dalton was at her parents' home when the storm hit. She told ABC Radio their house was intact but nearby fences were down and cars had been crushed by falling trees. "There was big chunks of metal and wood and things flying through the air," Ms Dalton said. "It was actually just like something out of a movie." There have been no reports of injuries at the tornado. Eaglehawk resident Shane Chester said his wife and children, including a five-day-old baby, were showered with glass when a window in their house was blown in during the tornado. "My wife was saying the window was starting to shake and then it just exploded into the house," Mr Chester told Melbourne radio station 3AW. "They were covered in glass but luckily no one was hurt." Graham Wilkinson was at his daughter's house in Eaglehawk when the tornado hit. "I just opened the door to go and shut the gate and I could just see all the neighbours' tiles on their roof flying in the air," Mr Wilkinson told ABC Radio. "There were great lengths of timber beams. A 20-odd-foot (6m) beam came up in the air and just speared down through the carport." California Gully resident Daryl Waters said it was remarkable nobody had been hurt, given the extensive damage to property in the area. "We've got an elderly lady next door in her late 70s. She was very upset, no roof left on her house at all, no garage. It's in pieces. It will have to be demolished for sure," Mr Waters told ABC Radio. Linda Courtney, of California Gully, whose 140-year-old home was all but destroyed described the scene as total devastation. She has vowed to rebuild her heritage home which was badly damaged. "The house is stone, so the walls are standing but everything else is gone," Ms Courtney told ABC radio. "I have no roof trusses or chimney or anything like that. "All the fences are gone, all my trees. We had a 100-year-old magnolia in the front yard. It's virtually destroyed. It's just total devastation. She estimated her house's tin roof had blown almost 3km away. Ms Courtney said she was inside cooking dinner when the tornado hit her home about 6pm (AEST). "It just hit out of nowhere. It was terrifying. My two children and I thought we were going to be killed. "The power flicked twice, then I heard a noise coming. It sounded like a freight train. "I'm in shock, I can't even think of how to describe it. It was just terrifying." Ms Courtney said the tornado passed in less than a minute. "It just stopped dead and everything just went very calm," she said. "We walked outside and I grabbed my mobile and rang friends and had the children taken off the property because they were hysterical." Friends and the State Emergency Service helped fix tarpaulins over the roof of the house and Ms Courtney said she would stay on and rebuild. "It's a magnificent home. It's just got to be rebuilt ... it's repairable.

HOLY S**T TO ALL OF THAT,
 
still, it always was a matter of when and not if.
damn lucky no one got topped.
 
once the ordinary bloke around there sinks his teeth into this i think there'll  be a lot more tornadoes reported, probably a lot of

Tornado noise 'like a fast train'

19may03

BENDIGO residents have described the noise of an impending tornado, which carved a path of
destruction, destroying several homes overnight, as that of a rumbling fast train.
Maree Burnie of the California Gully takeaway food store, in the worst-affected northern area of the
city, north of Melbourne, said growling thunder preceded the winds of up to 100kph, that ripped
through the area.

"We had thunder in the distance," Ms Burnie told AAP. "Most people described it as a fast train
coming.

"The power went off and it just hit.

"Basically it's gone through in a path. We weren't far off it.

"It was definitely a tornado. You could tell at the way the wind went through and the way the trees
were blown down."

She said her own home had been lucky to escape the path of destruction left by the tornado.

"We were safe. We just missed it, but we saw sheets of iron flying around."

A clean-up effort is under way this morning, after power blackouts hampered efforts overnight.

Ms Burnie said the area was a mess.

"There's bricks everywhere. It's all damaged, houses gone, roofs gone, power lines are still down in
some areas," she said.

California Gully butcher John Muns said his own home was spared, but houses just 500m away suffered
severe damage.

"I could see trees swirling around in the air and tin flying, it was going in a circular motion," Mr
Muns told AAP.

Resident Alan Jensen, who was at home when the tornado came through, causing extensive damage to his
house, described it as "a very frightening experience".

"We weren't sure where we should stand. We were always lead to believe to make for the bathroom, but
in our case the brickwork came down on top of the bathroom - just as well we never made for there," Mr
Jensen told ABC Radio.

Robyn Dalton was at her parents' home when the storm hit.

She told ABC Radio their house was intact but nearby fences were down and cars had been crushed by
falling trees.

"There was big chunks of metal and wood and things flying through the air," Ms Dalton said.

"It was actually just like something out of a movie."

There have been no reports of injuries at the tornado.

Eaglehawk resident Shane Chester said his wife and children, including a five-day-old baby, were
showered with glass when a window in their house was blown in during the tornado.

"My wife was saying the window was starting to shake and then it just exploded into the house," Mr

"There were great lengths of timber beams. A 20-odd-foot (6m) beam came up in the air and just speared

California Gully resident Daryl Waters said it was remarkable nobody had been hurt, given the
extensive damage to property in the area.

"We've got an elderly lady next door in her late 70s. She was very upset, no roof left on her house at
all, no garage. It's in pieces. It will have to be demolished for sure," Mr Waters told ABC Radio.

Linda Courtney, of California Gully, whose 140-year-old home was all but destroyed described the scene
as total devastation.

She has vowed to rebuild her heritage home which was badly damaged.

"The house is stone, so the walls are standing but everything else is gone," Ms Courtney told ABC

Ms Courtney said she was inside cooking dinner when the tornado hit her home about 6pm (AEST).

"It just hit out of nowhere. It was terrifying. My two children and I thought we were going to be
killed.

"The power flicked twice, then I heard a noise coming. It sounded like a freight train.

Being at there before moving out to the West of Victoria, I were very interested about it. Unfortunately though, I do have one complaint still. Out of all the stations, Channel 7 seems to want to continue with the "mini-tornado" theory, this being said this morning on Channel 7's Sunrise program, and the 6pm news on Channel 7. The other thing that really annoyed me about Channel 7's report on the evening news...they went to one of their reporters in Bendigo, in which he then said that according to the bureau of Meteorology, Victoria only averages 2 tornados a year. Maybe they should have a look at the Australian Sky and Weather website (http://www.stormchasers.au.com), and get their research right (Not the BoM, but Channel 7...I think the BoM would be quite a bit more researched about how many we get...especially with all the reports that ASWA members and BoM spotters give) Once again though, congratulations to Channel 9 and the ABC for calling this event for what it was...a tornado.

Hi everyone,
 
I recently moved to Tamworth for my career and I have heard it snows in Armidale and Glen Innes occasionally.
 
Has it snowed in Tamworth before? If so when and how snowy was it?
 
Thanx

As they tend to be expensive to buy, you can make one for yourself. All it is basically a box made up of 4 pillars to which are screwed on the inside of the 2 battens of wide wood usually plywood. All six sides (inside) is done like this. Screwed to the outside of the pillars on all 6 sides are 3 wide battens, making sure that they overlap the 2 inside battens, the pillars as well as forming the box also act as an air space. The idea basically is to allow the free flow of air without leting in the light. The box, battens and pillars to be painted a gloss white before assembly. The beauty of this is that you can make the screen to fit your circumstanses. Inside the box u make suitable mounts to place your thermometers. I made 1 up many years ago and it served me admirably for a great many years and in some ways served me better than a profeesional Stevenson screen. The screen ideally should be at least 1.2 meters (4 feet) off the ground with at least a 1.2 meter clearance around the screen. In my case my screen was mounted on my wind mast thus combining the two into 1 meaning my mast also acted as a stand for my screen. Thermometers are easy to get. For many years I used a "Sixth" thermometer which is basically a max-min thermometer in one. As a seperate thermometer for max and min can be expensive the "sixth"one filled in this gap . When compared to a "proffesional"set of themometers which I bought later I found no discernable difference in temp readings. In fact I still use my "sixth"thermoneter to this day. For RH and dewpoint thermometers; these can be easily constructed out of shop bought thermometers mounted on a wooden base as found at any supermarkets. Both thermometers are mounted with one thermometer having a cotton or muslin sleave over the bulb with the "tail " going into a suitable container holding water. The dew point and RH% is read comparing the temp of the dry bulb against the wet bulb and using a suitable chart showing percentages of moisture (which can be obtained on the 'net) in the air. Now we come to the difficult of instruments, this being a barometer. Unfortunately you have to purchase these and they tend to be a little expensive. I have 2. one is inside my home and the other is in my screen. Wind vanes are easy to make at home. If you have a friend skilled in metal work then its easy. My home made one consists of a vane 25 cm high and 16 cm wide using 1 mm steel plate. The hub is a bicycle hub to which the sail is brazed or silver soldered to, the "pointer"counterweight is brazed directly onto the center of the hub directly opposite the sail. For the vane to stay in balance the counterwweight "pointer" should be the same weight as the sail. I also braced the sail by brazing on a couple of keepers at the sail to the hub. I made my vane mast into 3 stages. One stage was 10 feet long to allow at least 4 feet to be buried into the ground. On the bottom was welded a footplate. on the top end was welded a 3/4" nut. The 2nd stage was 10 foot long. On 1 end was welded a 3/4 " bolt and at other end was welded a 1/2"nut. 2/3rds the length of part 2 was welded 3 washers (1/2" I think) for supporting guy wires. The last section was 3/4" waterpipe on which was welded a 1/2" bolt and a 3/8" metric nut, to which the vane proper was securely bolted. To keep the rain out of the instrument workings, I used the plastic top at a spray can with a 3/8"hole drilled carefully through it. The whole assembly was painted gloss white. The base was dug into the ground (not too hard) then section 2 was bolted securly to the ground mast and " trued" up using a plumb bob. Using a ladder the last section is bolted into place and is "trued"up using guy wires. For servicing the whole 3rd section is unbolted . The "official" rule is the mast should be 10 meters (33 feet) high however one must take ito account ones location. I work on the theory that the mast should be 1.2 meters higher than the building or at least 5 times the distance the height of the local tree/s.

I am amazed that I never thought of that originally - well done. I started in weather some 45 years ago, because as a keen astronomer I couldn't rely on the forecasts in those days - in fact nearly all my science interests had a foundation in astronomy. To get equiptment at BoM in those days was near to impossible (as it is probably is today lol) so I had to improvise. I had the good fortune to meet a meteorologist (now deceased) who taught me how to make various instruments to the BoM standards of those days. The same guy gave me my 1st aneroid barometer (which I still use) and my thermograph which unfortunately has packed up. The same guy also taught me how to observe the weather, ie read the sky, note what looked like insigificant things that may have an impact on the weather further on. He taught me to combine my instrument work with my visual work and not to rely on instrument stuff alone i.e to get a "feel" for the weather. I studied hard and learned a lot and I haven't stopped learning. To me , meteorologically speaking, there is never a dull day weatherwise. It's difficult to put into words just how much I like weather studies. Since joining the site, the various members here have contributed greatly to my knowledge, and some of the members photo's put BoM's öfficial" cloud altas photo's to shame. These too have greatly increased my knowledge of cloud formations. I feel as though I have joined a great number of weather smart people who are instructing me and I hope in my own way are helping out others.

I've had a lot to do with the media this year, and it certainly counts for a lot when you can build up a relationship with a particular journalist. It's not just weather - the only real specialist rural reporter at any of the metropolitan papers is Asa Wahlquist at the Australian, who is very good. I'll also throw in an honourable mention for Nick Miller (West Australian), who I think is their general Melbourne-based news reporter but has done a couple of excellent pieces on drought, climate change in WA etc. It's no coincidence that Nick is one of the few to have come and seen us in person - it makes it much easier to explain things when you can sit in front of a computer and take someone through maps and the like. Most of the pieces I've done with the Herald-Sun have also been pretty good (a little surprisingly given that paper's reputation). The worst pieces are the ones where they've already decided what line they're going to take and quote selectively to support that line. This obviously doesn't happen as much in weather and climate as it does in, say, politics, but it still happens at time to time. (For example, I did one interview late last week - they'd obviously decided to run with a line 'floods on the coast, drought inland', so they ran my quotes about the lack of rain last week in inland eastern NSW but left out the ones about the rains in the western half of the state.

The other possibility might be 27-28 July 1901, an event in which snow fell across most of inland NSW, but Tamworth might have been a little too far east for the best of the action. I'd love to be able to get my hands on an 850 hPa or thickness analysis for that event!

There is absolutely no exaggeration as to the ferocity of this tornado....The damage bill atm - 10 houses completely destroyed and at least 50 others have been seriously damaged including a large bluestone historical residence, not to mention minor damage sustained by a number of other homes. (see links at bottom left side of this page http://www.stormchasers.au.com/18_05_03.htm for Bendigo Advertiser damage photos) The official rating puts the Bendigo event to F2 which approaches 200kmh winds. The initial width of the path was 50-100m, debris was flung up to 500m either side of the path - car bodies were rolled in a wreckers yard, a caravan was levitated and flung 150m & so on. It would be better to not define the tornado as 'small', 'medium' or 'large', but to rate it at F2, which in the Fujita Scale is therefore regarded as a strong tornado 180kmh - 250kmh. With this information, it would be better to rate tornadoes at the F scale rather than a description of its size in respect to 'mini' or 'small' or 'large' (a description can often be erroneous in respect to scale and distance - a common misinterpretation in size can be made due distance between the witness and the tornado: I have read witness reports one 10km away has reported a small or mini tornado, meanwhile a persons house is being trashed by an F3 - as far as people nearby are concerned it appears very large!), as tornadoes have occurred in the States and other localities which appear very small in video but have in fact returned up to F4 in damage assessment. There are also failings with the Fujita scale which cannot be applied to tornadoes that pass through open country or woodland, on the other hand another tornado intensity scale developed by TORRO in the UK does account for damage to vegetation. The 2 are outlined below....... Intensity Description Of Tornado & Windspeeds Description Of Damage (TORRO - devised by Dr Terence Meaden) (for guidance only) T0 Light Tornado: 17 - 24 m s-1 (39 - 54 mi h-1) Loose light litter raised at ground-level in spirals. Tents, marquees seriously disturbed; most exposed tiles, slates on roofs dislodged. Twigs snapped; trail visible through crops. T1 Mild Tornado: 25 - 32 m s-1 (55 - 72 mi h-1) Deckchairs, small plants, heavy litter becomes airborne; minor damage to sheds. More serious dislodging of tiles, slates, chimney pots. Wooden fences flattened. Slight damage to hedges and trees. T2 Moderate Tornado: 33 - 41 m s-1 (73 - 92 mi h-1) Heavy mobile homes displaced, light caravans blown over, garden sheds destroyed, garage roofs torn away, much damage to tiled roofs and chimney stacks. General damage to trees, some big branches twisted or snapped off, small trees uprooted. T3 Strong Tornado: 42 - 51 m s-1 (93 - 114 mi h-1) Mobile homes overturned / badly damaged; light caravans destroyed; garages and weak outbuildings destroyed; house roof timbers considerably exposed. Some of the bigger trees snapped or uprooted. T4 Severe Tornado: 52 - 61 m s-1 (115 - 136 mi h-1) Motor cars levitated. Mobile homes airborne / destroyed; sheds airborne for considerable distances; entire roofs removed at some houses; roof timbers of stronger brick or stone houses completely exposed; gable ends torn away. Numerous trees uprooted or snapped. T5 Intense Tornado: 62 - 72 m s-1 (137 - 160 mi h-1) Heavy motor vehicles levitated; more serious building damage that for T4, yet house walls usually remaining; the oldest, weakest buildings may collapse completely. T6 Moderately-Devastating Tornado: 73 - 83 m s-1 (161 - 186 mi h-1) Strongly-built houses lose entire roofs and perhaps also a wall; more of the less-strong buildings collapse. T7 Strongly-Devastating Tornado: 84 - 95 m s-1 (187 - 212 mi h-1) Wooden-frame houses wholly demolished; some walls of stone or brick houses beaten down or collapse; steel-framed warehouse-type constructions may buckle slightly. Locomotives thrown over. Noticeable de-barking of trees by flying debris. T8 Severely-Devastating Tornado: 96 - 107 m s-1 (213 - 240 mi h-1) Motor cars hurled great distances. Wooden-framed houses and their contents dispersed over long distances; stone or brick houses irreparably damaged; steel-framed buildings buckled. T9 Intensely-Devastating Tornado: 108 - 120 m s-1 (241 - 269 mi h-1) Many steel-framed buildings badly damaged; locomotives or trains hurled some distances. Complete debarking of any standing tree-trunks. T10 Super Tornado: 121 - 134 m s-1 (270 - 299 mi h-1) Entire frame houses and similar buildings lifted bodily at foundations and carried some distances. Steel-reinforced concrete buildings may be severely damaged. The Fujita Scale - courtesy of the Tornado Project Online F0 Gale tornado 40-72 mph: Some damage to chimneys; breaks branches off trees; pushes over shallow-rooted trees; damages sign boards. F1 Moderate tornado 73-112 mph: The lower limit is the beginning of hurricane wind speed; peels surface off roofs; mobile homes pushed off foundations or overturned; moving autos pushed off the roads; attached garages may be destroyed. F2 Significant tornado 113-157 mph: Considerable damage. Roofs torn off frame houses; mobile homes demolished; boxcars pushed over; large trees snapped or uprooted; light object missiles generated. F3 Severe tornado 158-206 mph: Roof and some walls torn off well constructed houses; trains overturned; most trees in fores uprooted F4 Devastating tornado 207-260 mph: Well-constructed houses leveled; structures with weak foundations blown off some distance; cars thrown and large missiles generated. F5 Incredible tornado 261-318 mph: Strong frame houses lifted off foundations and carried considerable distances to disintegrate; automobile sized missiles fly through the air in excess of 100 meters; trees debarked; steel re-inforced concrete structures badly damaged. F6 Inconceivable tornado 319-379 mph: These winds are very unlikely. The small area of damage they might produce would probably not be recognizable along with the mess produced by F4 and F5 wind that would surround the F6 winds. Missiles, such as cars and refrigerators would do serious secondary damage that could not be directly identified as F6 damage. If this level is ever achieved, evidence for it might only be found in some manner of ground swirl pattern, for it may never be identifiable through engineering studies ...pondering all this, Jane -------------------------------- Jane ONeill - Melbourne cadence at australianskynweather.com Australian Sky & Weather http://www.stormchasers.au.com Australian Severe Weather Assocn (ASWA) http://www.severeweather.asn.au ***The journey is the reward*** -------------------------------- +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ To unsubscribe at 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------------------------------ X-Sender: vk3jed-1 at 192.168.15.1 X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 5.1.1 Date: Tue, 20 May 2003 21:02:11 +1000 To: aussie-weather at world.std.com at : "Tony Langdon (VK3JED)" Subject: Re: aus-wx: Education Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com At 08:49 PM 20/05/2003 +1000, you wrote: >Not going to go into an argument and wont reply.

Thanks Jane and Rod for your outstanding documentation of this event.

As someone born and bred in Bendigo, who now lives in Duffy, in Canberra, I feel peculiarly associated with this year's two big severe weather events.

As for the mini argument, my mind goes back to Jean Shrimpton wearing a mini to the 1965 Melbourne Cup and how much controversy that caused.

More seriously, I think the subtext of the meteorological community's unease over the use of the word 'mini' relates to how in our mind, the use of such a term, connotes that our (Australia's) tornados are qualitatively different at their big U.S. cousins.  This leads to the cultural cringe phenomenum, which Australians often feel in relation to the U.S.

Clearly our supercell tornados are not different at U.S supercell tornados, although our's are less frequent and probably less intense.  I can see Don's point, although in this instance I wouldn't even call this tornado small.

Remember, F5 and F4 events are very rare, even in the U.S., so if you were trying to work out what was the average size tornado, to get some notion about what was small or big, and you took the median, or a weighted mean based on speed, then the Bendigo event might be about average.

Overnight temp readings of -6degC were recorded in Mareeba, Malanda, Mutchilba, Emerald Creek, Bilwon and Koah districts. Snow fell also at Ballarat, Castlemaine, Maryborough, Toowoomba, Highfield, Centenary Heights and Ararat. Sydney had its coldest July since 1896. It was Melbourne's coldest day since 1901. Farmers in the Mallee were thrilled because the cold snap ended the mice plague. Snowstorms also hit Chile and Argentina that day.

This type of tornado seems to be a feature of west coast winter weather. Western Europe, California, WA and Vic and
New Zealand all have a history of these and despite the low CAPE environments in which the parent storms are spawned,
they can be quite destructive. The Bendigo tornado is a classic example with F1 to F2 damage. They are very much a dangerous
tornado and people have been killed by them in past history. Most recent tornado fatality in NZ was 1991. The parent thunderstorms are low topped super cells  which are associated with mesoscale disturbances. Wind shear is very much a feature of these, hence the propensity for severe weather. I find them a particularly interesting weather phenomena and its about time there was a serious study done on them in this part of the world.

Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com Hi Ken, Here is a definition of "monsoon" that I found on the net. The full definition can be found on the link that I have pasted below. The monsoon is more of a wind shift resulting in increased atmospheric moisture and rain, that may or may not be "heavy". Geoff Monsoon is a term originally coined by Arab mariners in reference to the seasonally shifting winds in the Indian Ocean and surrounding regions, including the Arabian Sea. These winds blow at the southwest during one half of the year and at the northeast during the other. There are, therefore, seasonal changes which are particularly noticed as northeast winds prevailing in the winter in the Indian subcontinent and southwest in the summer. Other monsoons occur in Australia and Africa. As monsoons have come to be better understood, the definition now denotes climatic systems anywhere in which the moisture increases dramatically in the warm season. The Asian monsoon, which affects the Indian subcontinent and southeast Asia, is the best-known example, although monsoonal climate is also found in northern Australia, West Africa, and elsewhere. The North to South presence of the Andes prevents similar phenomena in both S. and N. America. http://www.science.gmu.edu/~zli/monsoon.html At 10:33 PM 21/05/03 +1200, you wrote: >I'd also predict that the last week in June/beginning of July (22nd to about >the 2nd)could see heavy rains and floods in northern and central India.

Cheers Richard. But I know what you mean. It was the day after 1st Quarter, the lunar perigee was the day before, and the Moon was about to cross the equator. Funny thing is, the previous coldest maximum for Melbourne was 7.2 degC on July 7 1973, also day of 1st Quarter and Moon just crossed the equator.
Coincidences are just plain tiresome   :-)

There has been some study done on MISOscale events the UK gets rather a lot of tornadoes spawned at single cells.
 
Search for 'misoscale tornadoes' on google.

This type of tornado seems to be a feature of west coast winter weather. Western Europe, California, WA and Vic and

they can be quite destructive. The Bendigo tornado is a classic example with F1 to F2 damage. They are very much a dangerous

Here is a picture of your garden variety coldie cb/thunderstorm.  These are common across western and northern NZ at may to September. When they are associated with disturbances, they can produce localised severe weather including tornadoes.
In this example, the storm was a single cell (anvil cut off photo) producing hail.  photo taken at Auckland May2002.

This type of tornado seems to be a feature of west coast winter weather. Western Europe, California, WA and Vic and
New Zealand all have a history of these and despite the low CAPE environments in which the parent storms are spawned,
they can be quite destructive. The Bendigo tornado is a classic example with F1 to F2 damage. They are very much a dangerous
tornado and people have been killed by them in past history. Most recent tornado fatality in NZ was 1991. The parent thunderstorms are low topped super cells  which are associated with mesoscale disturbances. Wind shear is very much a feature of these, hence the propensity for severe weather. I find them a particularly interesting weather phenomena and its about time there was a serious study done on them in this part of the world.

Hi Steven,
 
I have probably said all this before on this forum, but it is such a strong topic of interest that it bears repitition.
 
Coldie's (also known as 'Cock-eyed Bobs' in W.A.) in Oz almost always seem to be related to the passage of a strong cold front.  I recall at  time I spent as a youngster in W.A., that you could clearly see a horizontal shear component in the cloud movement and the rain curtain associated with the main frontal squall line (NW ahead, SW behind).  Add this conjucive cyclonic horizontal component to considerable instability and vertical lifting with strong wind shear with height typical of a temp lat low, and you have the right conditions for vortex formation.
 
Another feature of coldies, apart at their relative F scale weakness, is that they are usually quite short lived.  Paths of only one or two kilometers are very common (although granted that some much longer ones have been recorded).   This may help explain the almost total absence of video and photographic records, despite some populated coastal regions (e.g., Mandurah, W.A.) showing incident rates which approach Tornado Alley in the U.S.  (Coldies are also known at the West Coast of USA, btw).
 
I have a theory that most coldies form in the turbulent region just ahead of, or at, the frontal squall line, rather than in a rear updraft region as is normal in a Supercell event.  In other words, that they are a frontal equivalent to a gustnado and not associated with classic Supercell structure.   Photographic records are needed to verify this theory.
 
Your excellent cold CB photo shows an isolated storm, which is not the usual Winter time cold front scenario.  Such cells can develop ahead (along a pre frontal trough) or behind a front in a cold unstable air-mass.  It is possible that these may develop a Supercell like structure with rotation and perhaps generate a tornado, but I suspect that this is not the typical way that a true coldie forms.
 
I did observe a spout associated with a weak late autumn squall line many years ago, which dropped just off the coast of SW W.A. near Sugarloaf Rock and persisted as a visible funnel in the cloud base as far as Busselton.  I tend to put this into the category of waterspout due to the absence of any severe weather (no thunder, lightning or hail), and I have observed a very similar event at Bribie Island in SEQ, where the funnel was visible while the associated cloud street travelled quite some distance inland (~10km).   Of course, I would be crucified by a certain fraternity if I suggested that coldies were just a waterspout that has travelled inland....    And in truth I think the origin is different as they are certainly associated with active severe weather..
 
One thing that I do know, is that if I was still a resident of Perth, any time a particularly strong day time cold front approached, I would go park myself on a sand dune with good views close to Mandurah, video recorder and digital camera in hand!  
 
Regards,
John W.

I agree with most of your post re cold-air tornado genesis in Australia. I don't think the Bendigo event was necessarily a "coldie" type funnel however, nor was the Fairy Dell event in June 2000 (depends on your definition of cold I suppose - i.e. cold as in low temperature or cold as in much warmer than the air it forms in - if I make any sense). I'm still very much of the opinion that supercell genesis in Australia is fundamentally different (in the southern states of Australia at least) at the larger US cousins. Not least because of the different air masses involved. The results of the supercell formation may well follow the same rules as US SCs but their genesis can't help but be different. Yes, we do get SCs that form along the same lines as those in the US but the formation is *generally* low-topped (comparitively) and devoid of dry-line characteristics. Just my 2.2c worth. Well worth a second look however.

HI All,

 

Just heard this on the ABC Weather here in Perth tonight. at the weather presenter on the ABC, John Colwell, quote “ We now have the return of full length Satellite Imagery, The JMA GOES 5 Satellite that was well past its use by date has been replaced by the American GOES 9 Satellite as a temporary measure, until the replacement JMA Satellite is lunched in early 2004.”  Can anyone else on the list confirm this? And will the times for when the satellite imagery is released to the internet still be the same?

 

MJ.

Hi,
These tornadoes are spawned in maritime disturbances within the mid latitude westerly flow.  The air is not
necessarily cold. Infact with the more active systems the dewpoints can be relatively high, that is certainly the
case in NZ were there is good exposure to the moist subtropics to the north. (The milder air can be dragged down).
So perhaps "Coldie" is the wrong term.   I believe the Bendigo tornado fits within this classification.
 
There were a few storms with hail over the lower North island yesterday, the product of the trough that was over
Victoria Monday.
 
Cheers

I was struck at how un-Australian the countryside looked, with what appear to be treeless old volvanic cones scattered across open rolling countryside. Add to this a distinct lack of natural bush or gum trees and heavy plantings of various European Pines & Firs as windbreaks, kilometers & kilometers of carefully constructed stone fences, and one could be forgiven for thinking this is somewhere close to Aukland or even in Ireland. I was also struck at the very significant tree damage that the Pines & Firs have sustained in the countryside surrounding Warrnambool, with a great many trees several feet thick partly or almost completely destroyed, looking as if the crowns have been twisted off. Few trees seem to have escaped without loss of at least one major limb. The damage looks to have been relatively recent or at least sometime in the last several years, and maybe it is cumulative at repetitive gale force wintery blasts. But, obviously the trees have been there for at least 100 years in many cases (due to the thickness of truncks), and equally obviously, have survived intact until the point of recent destruction. So, I suspect there must have been some unusually severe weather, and maybe tornadic storms through there in relatively recent times. I was wondering if you had any idea as to the what & when.

There are three regular items that immediately come to mind: Firstly: Every year without fail those beautiful rolling plains were crossed by the "Equinoxial Gales". When they came, the gum trees all lost a lot of their leaves but otherwise survived okay. But those rows of pines and firs and similar imports would cop it every year. As you say, the tops of some would be wrenched off, limbs torn out of others and sometimes whole trees or even whole lines of trees would get flattened. They just didn't seem to have the stamina of our native trees. Secondly: Especially where lines of pinus radiata were planted, just before Christmas each year, the top six or seven feet would "disappear" without trace at dozens of young trees in the middle of the night. There would be no trace of the missing centre of the tree next morning. Coincidentally, of course, pinus radiata Christmas trees used to go on sale next day in nearby towns. Of course, we wouldn't want to accuse people of stealing, would we? Thirdly: The other weather feature in that area which would probably take its toll at time to time were the frequent tornadoes (which were locally known almost universally as "willy-willies") which nearly every year would wind their way across the countryside at the rear of the gigantic thunderstorms which used to follow each other across those plains. In fact the old timers in the area would never decide where to build the house or sheds etc, without asking the local aboriginal weatherman whether the site was safe at the willy-willy. The aboriginal weathermen seemed to know exactly which parts of a property would be safe at the willy-willy and which parts were not. I have no idea how they knew, but all the older people would swear by their skill.

Now as the European severe weather season approaches any of you you with an interest in European severe weather should have a look here for NWS-style outlooks. It's quite new and seems to be somewhat optomistic as regards severe thunderstorms - but it's getting there.

This storm developed near Auckland this morning (around11am 24th May).  Its early stages had some spectacular
cumulus congestus which I missed out on photographing.

Residents Mopping Up After Tornado
24/05/2003 04:56 PM
IRN


Emergency services are mopping up after a tornado ripped through an Auckland suburb today.

The mini-twister hit Browns Bay mid-afternoon, shattering panes of glass and lifting roofs.

The fire service says there is minimal damage to buildings, and nobody has been injured.

Surface flooding has caused causing problems around Auckland city after heavy rain and some thunder.

Almost as far away as you can get. As you probably know, Auckland is an isthmus with the main Waitemata Harbour on the NE side (Pacific) and the Manukau Harbour on the SW side (Tasman). Mangere Bridge cross's the latter. Browns Bay's much further up the North Shore's more exposed E coast leaving it more prone to effects of electrical storms etc. One of NZ's most recent Volcanoes sits in the Waitemata Harbour - see Steven's earlier photo http://www.thunderstorm.co.nz/cb240503.jpg Steven, do you have any more info or a ref of news reports?

"East Coast Bays firefighters said torrential rain preceded the twister. A harbourmaster saw up to four water spouts in the Hauraki Gulf/Waitemata Harbour." Also at the same time, a 'freak tornado' hit near the more inland rural town of Cambridge (famous for horse breeding), about 140km SSE of Auckland. Rain and accompanying winds quickly gave way to 'a big black tunnel' that swept down a valley, picking up the roof of a six month old home as it went. A local resident saw the debris swirling about 1000 metres up.

At the moment I have plenty of time but I need to find work as my savings are slowly dwindling after taking a package at the CSIRO and moving to the south coast. HARDWARE: I actually have made a remote weather station that transmitted data back to my base via a VHF radio using FSK tones etc. I designed the annomter and direction unit myself using parts available at plumbing shops etc and usinf a lathe etc. It also did temp, humidity etc. It was done for a para gliding club to save time in driving to the site in unfavarable conditions. Rain gauge was a bit more difficult to make an easy unit that was acurate. I also have now some barometric sensors I sourced of Ebay at a person having excess stock.... It uns off solar etc and seemed quite ok. The microprocessor side of things was done using PIC BASIC PRO and PIC chips SOFTWARE: I also write using DELPHI software for Windows. One of my current projetcs is weather software. I use a Dick Smith wm918 as a source of data for now but the software is done so once I get it all together I then can get other weather stations and hook them in. It also has capabilities to send and recieve upto 16 stations LIVE and 999 with a slite delay. For now it updates my weather page with local data and tidal predictions etc. Calculates sunrise, sets etc. You can create web pages using templates containing things like {cot} and it genrates the web page, replces the {cot} with current outside temp and then ftp's them off to my web site. The usual email stuff is there as well as alarms via SMS and you can request the local weather via SMS. AND COMBINED: I also have a SP30 module that is a self contained chip etc that does text to speech. I use this to feed my 2 way radios with weather reports etc. Also dial in wetaher reports via phone are available. The point is if anyone would like some info I am not really sure if my system will ever go commercial so at this point in time I am happy to share. I am also happy to knock up some software to gather data at each location etc and upload to a common site if necessary. totaly independant of any of my gear......
