Hi Everyone
1.30 am roughly and there have been a number of small storms brew up on
radar around the coff's harbour region, new cells are still developing now
but are lasting 1/2 an hour or so in the pink. For all those interested i
have saved loops/pics of the radar, email me personally if you would like
them, im sure the QLD guys will be interested when they read this in the
morning.! (ill be on irc in the morning if u guys want it then)

It's 2:03am and we just got our first 'white' on the SE QLD lightning tracker,
about 20kms SW of Tenterfield, NSW!
Move north damn it!

At 3.55am (don't we ever sleep??) radar shows some good echoes along a line
offshore from Coffs tracking NW towards Casino. Nothing current on the
lightning tracker. Today looks interesting for us though.

Hello Everyone
I saw on last nights news there is a report out on the BOM response to
the severe weather forecasts issued at the time of the Sydney to Hobart.
It just stated that severe weather forecasts where issued and sailors
should learn how to interpret them. Does anyone know more?

Hi all,
8:20am here...small storms in NE NSW are still going (all just out to
sea) moving NNE. Don't suppose you saved the lightning tracker image,
Marty? (Sounds sad I know...but I just like saving them, even if it was
just one white!) The sky is predominantly As/Ac now...and it's rather
cold...(18.2C here) DP if 16C, 1020hPa steady, light SW'er (ugh!)
Meanwhile John...3:55am!?!? Even I don't stay up that late when my
parents are gone for the weekend! Let alone a weeknight, isn't that way
past you oldies bedtime??? (big mischevious grin) J/K!
(just/kidding)
This development is nice to see, but perhaps it's just the 'dryline'
interacting with the moist air on the coast? Certainly, given the
current circumstances, the potential looks ok..although the models have
no mention of this 'event' at all. Anyway...I'm going to say Brisbane
won't get anything...and now that I've said this, everyone better look
to the SW, because there'll be some Cb growing now!

Now 10:20am and it is looking heaps better than yesterday. Just saw a nice
cb on the border make then break through a pileus cap. Looking better now
than any time yesterday.
Fingers crossed. (Anthony, I was actually working on a late s/w project
can you believe... - although naturally I did have to watch a fair
percentage of the Aust-Bangladesh match first - one of things us "oldies"
like to do).
John.

Peter,
Here's a selection of shareware GIF Animators from TUCOWS. I use GIF
Construction Set but now looking at this list I think I should probably
change.

I run a SparcStation 5 with Solaris 2.5.1 but that doesn't stop
my suggestions being applicable to PC/Windoze users:-)
I use these utilities for which the source code and some realeased
binaries are available for free, including releases for Windoze:
1) http://www.danbbs.dk/~dino/whirlgif/ is the fastest IMHO. It can
munge over 350 50kb GIF images into a 35MB animation in less than
a minute. 50 or so images take less than 4 seconds. There are also
Windoze binaries available.
2) http://www.lcdf.org/gifsicle/ makes slightly smaller animations
and is probably the world's best in this regard. It also busts up
animations which is why I use it. Great gif editing tool also.It's
about 3x slower on my setup than whirlgif and I don't think there's
a build for PC users running Windoze but you could always upgrade
to Linux:-) Otherwise, you'd need to hack the source for a Windoze
release.
3) "convert" from ImageMagick of the E. I. du Pont de Nemours
and Company is also free and offers a huge range of conversion
options. Their gif animations are too big IMHO and it is slower
than gifsicle. A Windoze release is available.
4) There are hundreds of option for Windoze users, most of which
want you to part with your money in order to get some nice graphics
and lousy performance. That's a bit mean of me to say. Take a look
at http://www.webreference.com/authoring/graphics/animation.html
The reason why I target the command-line utilities is that I
mostly automate the animation process so that the computer does
all the work ultimately.
Enjoy!

Hello Everyone
For those interested in tides some extra information supplied by
Paul Davill National Tidal Facility The Flinders University of South
Australia
Chas
Strahan Tasmania
> would rainfall have no effect (assuming you take into
account the delay
> caused by the narrow entrance)?
If there is no rainfall, rainfall would have no effect on the tides!
> Is the tide the same height as Hobart?
The Australian National Tide Tables quotes an average tide range for
Cape Sorrell, Pilot Bay as being 0.9 metres compared with Hobart at
1.3
metres.
> Are tides based on standard pressure 1013HPa?
Tide predictions are based on sea level observations, with include
the
barometric pressure effects. The basis of prediction includes annual
and semi-annual cycles which reflect the annual and semi-annual
cycles
in barometric pressure. Thus the tides are based on the average
annual
and semi-annual cycles in barometric pressure.
For monthly mean barometric pressures at Spring Bay (near Hobart)
see:-
ftp://pacific.ntf.flinders.edu.au/pub/research/monthly_report/means/BP/sbBP.mea
For monthly mean sea level at Spring Bay, see:-
ftp://pacific.ntf.flinders.edu.au/pub/research/monthly_report/means/SL/sbSL.mea
Summing up, the tide predictions are based on the average barometric
pressure. It would be more appropriate to use the monthly mean,
rather
than a long term mean.
Regards, Paul

Hi all,
I had an interesting chat with my mum about the sunset, as some
Briabanites may have noticed, it was SPECTACULAR. But...here's
something of interest, my mum said it was the weirdest sunset she'd ever
seen because it was a light green on the horizon! I immediately thought
of a "green flash" - this occurs occassionally just at the right moment
when the rays of the Sun are getting refracted at an angle to emit green
light. I was wondering did anyone else see this?
Maybe it was just our omen? A Reddy-orange sky (maroon kinda) with some
green (cane toad colour kinda..) :-)

Hi all,
*Clap clap clap* :)
I'd also like to thank Michael for his excellent
contributions...certainly, the ASW site was a "central point" for all
weather fanatics, and without this, I don't think anyone would be on
this list today, and ASWA would all just be a "gee, wouldn't it be nice
to have a weather association for us to join."
I remember being invited to an online #Weather meeting by Michael, I was
only 16 and I was shitting myself, because no one knew my age, and I was
afraid if they asked it, they wouldn't take me seriously! Fortunately,
he did, and so did everyone else :)
After this...things began to happen, such as further participation in
#Weather meetings, and the aus-wx (thanks to Jacob).
However, Michael has been an invaluable person in the formation of ASWA
and I too would like to thank him for his excellent contributions! I
look forward to meeting up with Michael at QLD ASWA meetings if he can
attend them.
