NEVER FEAR!!! I WAS THERE! I WAS THERE!!!!!!
Today my girlfriend from Melbourne became a hapless stormchaser for the first
time in her entire life !!!
We were on the beach at Burleigh Heads .... about 5.15pm I dragged myself up
off the sand and glanced south and 'wtf!!!!' ... WHERE did THAT come from!!!
>From there it was:- madly grab HER camera - shot off a couple of frames ...
then bundled my stuff, her stuff... oh, and her (michelle i.e.), in the
direction of the car ....
We were fuelled and flying down #1 by 5.38pm ... it had anvilled at approx
10,000 earlier ... but the tops were still shooting upwards and a second
level anvil was forming about 20,000 ..... when we left Tweed Heads it had
moved from SW to our SE...
Over the next 67kms it put on a real show for us ... from rocky white, to grey
passing into pink and dissolving into a glorious gold ... as we got further
south it was evident we had been observing the backend of the cell ......
the forward flank faced south, was nicely anvilled, with pronounced 'knuckles'
at the SW portion..I'd say at about 30,000.. there were sister cells trying to
'pop' to the NW and SW flanks...
By 6.30 we experienced some light spats of rain, and passed under the inflow
band proceding from the west and feeding into the NW flank of the beast. By
6.48pm it became evident it was basically stationary, off the coast, somewhere
south west of Ballina ... it was nearly dark, and began displaying fine bursts
of IC lightning .....
And, with dark almost on us .. and no other data to judge on ... the anvil had
noteably softened but still displayed mammatus in the south portion ... VERY
reluctantly I made a Uturn and headed back north... we weren't going to get to
where I'd have liked to be .... and Michelle by now, was coherent and starting
to wonder WHAT on earth she was doin in the car hurtling along in NSW
territory.... and where did the beach go?
At about 7.45 we pulled over about 20k's south of Tweed Heads ... and took
in the fantastical lightning show to our east .... and yes, it was MAGNIFICENT.
At times it was like little atom bombs exploding from within ... tons of IC
accentuated with bolts of CC running from thunder head to thunderhead ....
we didnt observe any ground strikes at all .. it was all CC strikes...
It was still going berserk when we reached Brissie. The strength within was
belied by the multi level heavy scud shrouding the northern edges of the cell
itself ... it didn't look nearly as ferocious viewed from the north, as it
did from the west and southwest.
We actually had a camera with some film ... and between us we've caught
several fine shots (I think!)
Chase start 5.15 pm - travlled 140kms from Burleigh to 15k nth of Ballina
and back to point A. Chase end 8.35.
ohmigod!! I got shopping, sun, sand, surf AND stormchasing ALL IN THE ONE
DAY!!! (NOW... there's only ONE thing that could possible be better than
that! (maybe))
Hey, this could be some kind of record?!!!!
rals dreading werk tomorrow...

hey guys,
bodie mentioned that this storm formed at around 2pm. but i saw this thing
from gold coast at about 12pm!! then i saw it again later at about 4ish. it
had been moving pretty slow!! and it was only about this time, it appeared
on the tracker. then, on the way to work at 6 oclock, it was a beautiful
fluffy huge mother of a supercell! i was to take my camera to take a shot
while on the way to work, but i forgot. i was also at burleigh heads!! if
only i wasn't working i prolly would've driven to NSW aswell!! flatmates
made me really jealous when they said they saw spectacular lightning out to
sea a couple hours ago! goddam it!! truffles, you'll have to post the
photos you took! oh well, next time hopefully!

Hi everyone,
Ross from Brisbane here. Just uploaded some of the pics from the chase
that Anthony, James and myself were on a couple of weeks ago.
The URL is http://www.zipworld.com.au/~rportas/jan31.htm
I'll Probably be modifying this a bit, so don't be surprised if the
format changes. :-)
Cheers,
Rosco.

Keith
The shift to the SE is pretty common along the east coast after a cool
change. The reason for this is "ducted ridging" - the cooler air moving up
the coast is trapped by the ranges and results in the ridge building along
the coast. Over time, this ridge turns the coastal wind around the the SE.
Mark

Good question Jo, personally with a t'storm like this, night is best,
the CC's were just lighting up the entire t'storm, and showing the
overshoot very well! It's just a shame that the t'storm couldn't have
been to the SW of us instead of the SE.
It was a scorcher in Brisbane yesterday, 31C with the DP sitting between
24-25C, but the cap was just too strong to allow t'storms to develop
unfortunately.
Energex doesn't pick up all the lightning...it tends to only pick up
only strong CG's and CC's...that's the only flaw about it.

The Bathurst Ag. Research station had a minimum of 2.8 this morning.
This equals the station's (post-1921) record low for February, set
on 22/2/1931 and 23/2/1943.
(Note that the Climate Averages web page gives the record as 3.2,
but this only covers the period since 1966).
Canberra got down to 5 - lowish but not record territory (record is
3.0). In Victoria the most interesting obs was the 2 at Beechworth,
but there was such a drastic site change there in the mid 80s (change
in elevation of ~250m) that records there are pretty meaningless.
The Tasmanian 9 a.m. bulletin isn't in yet.
Quite a contrast with what the rest of the summer has been like.

I think what I was talking could be a different much tinier one - at
about 6.30pm I looked at the lightning tracker and yep there seemed to
be some big action bear Ballina but looking at the colour range it
looked to be dieing (no whites or reds). My observation was E of
Brisbane at about 8.45 so unless the Ballina storm headed northwards
after it died it was definitely separate to it.
I tell you what though I would have much rathered travelling to
Redcliffe on an empty stomach and seeeing what you saw !

Pretty chilly Blair:
Blackheath around 9 because the cloud cover came in. We've had a mild
summer up here. Average temp for Jan was around 21.

Hi Jo and all,
There were times when lightning tracker was turned off by Energex or
rather the company that Energex gets their lightning data off (you can
tell that if there were 40 whites, then 0 whites, 40 reds, then 0
whites, 0 reds, 40 yellows etc) so that's why it can appear to have died
by looking at Energex lightning tracker.
And don't get frustrated, there's so much to learn about weather, you
can never get bored from weather as just when you think you know
everything about a certain topic, something will happen that will make
you rethink. Every single day is a learning experience with weather,
you continuously learn a little bit more each day (yes even fine and
sunny days can be educational) as it allows you to deduce your own
opinions and hypothesis about what happens before/during/after certain
situations (ie pre/post frontal, trough, upper level trough, capping
etc) and then allows you to test these in later situations.
Anthony from Brisbane

Noticed some fairly high maxima on the north Queensland coast yesterday:
Cairns 36
Townsville 37
Low Isles 37
Ingham 38
Rockhampton 40
The Low Isles figure is an equal February record. Rockhampton's is
the highest since 1990, Cairns and Townsville since 1992 (perhaps
1990 in Townsville, depending on rounding).

Halden Boyd has sent me three images of the spectacular storm that moved
along the north coast of NSW yesterday (18/2). All pics were taken from
South Evans Head overlooking Snapper Rock towards the southest at about 6pm.
