Must be one of the earliest on record for this area but cold air has been advected unusually far north... * INTERESTING LOCAL HEADLINE: "Full Moons blamed for dry spell." It goes on to suggest that having three full moons in two months has seriously curtailed the normal March-April rain break... * RAIN-SEEDING at WACA! News just to hand suggests that Melbourne-based AFL clubs want to re-introduce cloud-seeding over the WACA and Subiaco ovals to combat what they see as "dry weather superiority"! What next? Snow-seeding in the Victorian Alps? * BIBLICAL PLAGUE? One juicy item from USAToday reports a rain of tadpoles from a severe storm in Louisiana! It went on to say that falls of frogs are not unknown from tornadic storms but this must only have been a small tornado.... * WEATHER21 ACCEDES TO ALL ASWA DEMANDS!! This is my favourite news story of the day: All Weather21 news reports must include the probability of mesocyclones and tornadoes as a coloured map grid; areas of lifted indices of lower than -6 must be flashing red; all reporters must grimace when reading the line "nice weather for gardening etc.."; and the 30 second pic grabs between segments must include severe weather shots. There is no truth to the rumour that Mark Hardy tied himself to the camera during his TC Vance report... Cheers, Kevin from Wycheproof.

The as has thickened up and the overnight temperatures of close to zero havn't climbed much since sunrise. As a result snow has been falling in and around Canberra over the last hour. There have been reports in that a number of roads in the area have been closed by accumulating snow and it is not possible to go further south than Williamsdale. Apparently there have been some amusing incidents from vehicles going up the hill to Parliament House. They have been losing grip on the icy roads and have been backsliding and going around in all directions. The deft handilng of such conditions suggests that the occupants were used to behaving in this manner. Amazing as it sounds, the pond in the forecourt of Parliament House has also frozen over - I think a Tasmanian Senator is currently having a go at skating on it. A BoM spokesperson was saying on the radio that this early season snowfall while unusual was not totally unexpected. He said that they had been watching the movement of the cold air carefully over the last few days and thought that something like this could happen today. Apparently, it seems that there have been a few unusual weather events on this day in the past.

If confirmed over the 24 hour period, it will be the lowest March max in Adelaide since 15.0 was he top of 16 March 1946 - which, incidentially was the lowest March max ever and the only March day which failed to reach 16 degrees in Adelaide. Sydney's top today was about 18 - the lowest since November but today is April so not unusually cold.

The fact that they say it will ease to showers on Sat. is something I've seen many times ie often it's forecast to ease only to turn into a major rain event of Genesis proportions almost on some occasions... As for today in Sydney, there weren't Genesis clouds, only Jude ones ('...clouds without rain, blown along by the wind, autumn trees without fruit...')

Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com Hi Everyone There has been talk for a couple of months now about a chase to North East NSW/ South East Queensland during late November/early December of this year. So far a fair few VIC people are very interested(Clive,Chris,Jane,Paul,Dane) as well as NSW (Matt P,Matt S, Jimmy) and QLD people (Anthonly/James/Ben). The chase will last around 2 weeks or so, nothing is finalised at this stage and this email is being sent out to get an idea of people who are interested in attending. Of course seats in cars will limit numbers (Eg if only 2 people with cars from NSW go, then probably 3 Maximum in each car.) Basically we plan to travel where the storms take us and probably stay at the closest town for the night. Anyway its months off and lots more discussion is going to take place, but if your interested give me a mail PERSONALLY and if you are willing to be a passenger/take your own car/or share the driving in someones car. Thanks alot!
