Hello Everyone

1.4mm overnight puts us back into rain days. Thursday and Friday were
our first no rain days since the 7th of May. This gives us a monthly
rain total of 171mm for May. Mt Read a station we can see from here on a
clear day had 445mm for the month.
 We are expecting some clearing showers today.

I see that the below message still contains " A message from ASWA,......"

I think I would prefer to hear " A message from the Australian Severe
Weather Association. " Why bother with the abbreviated ver, the whole
picture makes more of an impact than a cut out piece...

Hey Ben from Brisbane here..

61mm in the gauge this morning.. 11m of that from the previous 24 hours
to 9am, and 50mm in the 24 hours to 9am today.. not too shabby at all :)
Coolangatta (south of Brisbane on the Gold Coast) has 97mm to 9am this
morning, and Brisbane airport had 67mm to 9am this morning as well.. so
generally some good falls throughout Brisbane, i think James and Anthony
received about the same as me too.. 

This next system looks like it could be interesting, AVN is going off
with the LI's at the moment.. we'll see, as i've said many times already
all the models are shocking at the moment.. and the LI's of course would
be effected as well..

Another 44.8mm at Wollongbar nearly all of which fell in the 6 hours to
midnight. Steady moderate rain with some heavier showers. So about 125mm in
the 72 hour period of this rain event.

Still cloudy this morning with a drizzle patch, but now some sunny breaks.
Light N winds

Hi everyone, many people have asked what happened to my site.
I had to move it as it was to big.

It's now at http://marina.fortunecity.com/seafarer/460/

Sorry about the change.
I had no choice.

Thanks

Hi all,

GASP predicts a great looking east coast low for Tuesday->Wednesday but low
and behold (no pun intended)...

Wednesday 09/06/99 midnight:

The low depicted off the NSW coast on the chart is considered
unlikely. On Wednesday, the  high will move into the southern Tasman
Sea, and coastal winds will tend E to NE. A front moving through the
Bight will reach Adelaide late Wednesday, and is expected to bring
warm, freshening northwest winds and some late rain to the far west
of the state.

What do we have to do to get some action here!!

100mm will be Michael Bath's typical light overnight shower where he has
moved too.

But you still all winter to get through yet, do there grow wheat that far
west ? if so I am sure that they are happy and are busy seeding.

I took a punt at this myself last week in a message replying to Jimmy
regarding interesting weather for the weekend. Unfortunately I have to
confess that my hopes have dwindled, although we may get some rain
overnight.

Dry here in the Illawarra, although I can now see the rain band to the west,
unlike last weeks effort we may get something out of this system as it seems
to have access toa little low level moisture, there is some Cu building up
into the middle layer stuff.

Hi all,

To whom this may concern...

A few people told me that they had problems accessing the ASWA radar
page, I talked to the webmaster (Michael Fewwings) and he has fixed the
page so that java is no longer called for.  This should hopefully sort
out everyone's problems, please email me or Michael Fewwings if you
still have problems.

Thanks,

Hi all,

Seven days after the last rainy day, Canberra has had light
rain periods from around 11.00am (Eastern Aust time).

The airport has received 6.8mm and at Higgins I have had
9.5mm to 5.30pm. The rain is continuing.

Whilst some are looking for an ECL, I am lookin (in vain
at the moment) for those blue and purple thickness lines
(in the FNMOC models) to come surging northwards over
SE Aust. They seem stuck well south of 40 south for the moment.

It looks like the south west of WA has had more surges of cold
air so far this winter.

Patrick

G'day Andrew,

I'm in Blackheath, which is around 1100 metres altitude, give or take.
I observed snow falling on about half a dozen different occassions here
in Blackheath last year with only the one decent fall that settled for
up to two days in shaded or protected areas. There was a good cover (for
us) on the ground that day and the temperature hovered around zero for
most of that day. There were light settlings on other days (mostly at
night, melting by mid-morning) and we had a number of heavy flurries
that didn't settle much because of the wind on various other days. There
was one day when I was at Mt Victoria pub (long story - seperated from
my partner for a few weeks - two family members died of cancer last
year, very tough) and as I was sitting there, (crying), the snow started
to teem down. God it was good to see that. It was heavy, wet snow,
sticking to everything but the wind didn't let it settle much. Very
large flakes tumbled along the road and settled in the pub garden.
Beautiful. 

What's your altitude Andrew? I've got pics of good snow in Oberon around
'93 that was were taken days after the snow fell, and yet it still
totally covered the ground at Shooters Hill, around 1365 metres i think.


We had a November fall in '96, pretty decent and a pretty good one in
august of that year too. '97 was light with just the one fall, I think,
and '98, like I said was good fun for us.

Just wondering, is there anyone out there who knows much about cameras?
I scored myself an SLR camera tonight, but it doesn't have any
instructions whatsoever and i wouldn't have the faintest clue how to use
it.. It's a Minolta srT 100.. it's ummm... black... and that's all i can
tell you! Like i said i don't have a clue how to use it, so any help
would be great!

Thanks in advance..

well...make sure the lens cover is off, and make sure the glassy
end is pointed at the thing what you want to take the pic of.
Oh - and film's important :)

Seriously though - if you are new to SLR's then go to a 2nd hand 
bookshop and grab some books - it'll tell you all about how the
light meter works, depth of field and shutter speed considerations.
I'm not familiar with the SRT - but if it has an auto-mode then
you can always use that until you get more confortable with the
manual overides.

Then you can start buying lenses, tripods, filters, flashes, motor
drives, film backs... :)

cheers,
Chris

Hi all,

Jimmy here.

There seems to be some concern about what is happening in terms of ASWA.
Please print and read the following to get some ideas of how we wish
certain issues should be dealt with and where we are heading.

As people know, ASWA was developed to bring together people of a common
interest. We have achieved a lot with the help of many putting in the hours
willingly. We now have:

-an organisation which has been incorporated and therefore recognised

-a web site that doesn't really reveal the many hours of work that has been
done to it, all hidden within the script

-regular meetings that help people to learn, share ideas and communicate
about their favourite topic - severe weather

-regular activities such as video nights and chases which have been
organised within each state for the enjoyment and fulfilment of all those
able or willing to attend

-a developing database for collection of storm data

-T-shirts with ASWA logo

-a list of observation lookouts around Australia

-setting up of radar

-who knows what else.

What else is being planned:

-damage survey projects

-education projects in various states are under planning

-business cards for distribution to the general public (some have already
been done)

-CSA (Community Services Announcements)

-brochures

-stalls in shopping centres

-we are using these ideas and other ways to educate as well as encourage
those interested in severe weather to join. So this is one of the high
priorities as well as giving the value for money for members in ASWA.
Education of members within ASWA is a top priority is also important and
their are many resources such as the list and the web sites for people to
learn more. I myself have learnt so much in this way.


These have all been done thanks to those who have spent their precious
hours coming up with the ideas and/or volunteering to take part in doing
them. As you can see, much has been achieved in a very small time.

However, their has been a lot of activity that has been going on behind the
scenes that simply do not show. The incorporation of ASWA for one and
coming up with the rules took a lot of time. Their has also been so much
time dedicated by state reps in attracting the right people with
personalised e-mails which believe it can take a fair bit of time getting
together. Meetings and discussion with the Bureau trying to get their
feedback and involvement in close association with ASWA. Their has been a
lot of other things I simply cannot recall.

Now, there have been people getting edgy about certain issues. Please read
the follwing procedures so that you can get some idea of how things should
operate more eficiently:

If you send an e-mail for discussion about an issue

- try and make it brief and to the point
- if people don't resond, try again
- if this doesn't work, e-mail your state rep or myself and see if it ok
for it to go ahead
If it is a state idea and doesn't involve funds from ASWA or anything of
legal importance, run the idea by me and I will give my thoughts. There is
no need to get frustrated about no input from others and so on.

Please be aware of what others are doing and give feedback such as
improvements or problems directly to those concerned off the list. It is
downgrading for those involved to receive such feedback over the list
especially after they have spent countless hours doing so.

Please note that things can only happen slowly. There is a lot of energy
out there but please be patient. Write your ideas down on paper and run
them by the list so that others can see what is a possibility for their
area. If you can't do something yourself, then be patient and wait. It can
sometimes take months or even up to a year for some things to be initiated.
For instance, Paul Graham had set up the system of reporting storms to be
input into a central database. I had mentioned for people to volunteer
helping with this task so that all storms on the list can be listed and
placed either manually or automatically into a database. Since nobody
volunteered, it has been put aside. It is not that urgent but it would be
good if someone could do it. Your ideas and enthusiasm is appreciated but
if you don't have people willing to do it, then it will have to wait unless
you do it. Again, run it by me or your state reps.

Some people also foirget that people do other things besides reading
messages on the list. Some people have periods where things at work or
associated with work or even home gets really busy. I for instance am in
the process of marking examinations and writing reports. So you will find
that I will not be as active as I could be. 

Please try and be as positive in your comments as well as proactive. Have
respect for others' views and ideas. Give recommendations and not demands
as it sometimes appears to be in some messages. Read your e-mail thoroughly
before pressing the send button. Keep all those on the list in mind before
sending the message. How will it affect them? Don't just assume that common
idea of freedom of speech!!!!

People have asked for me to provide a set of guidelines so I hope I have
covered some of them. As I said, print this out and keep it in mind. These
points are important when you get frustrated and don't know what you need
to do.

This is not really a debating point please. Respect the time I have
invested in putting together this e-mail and just think about the points.
If you don't agree with some or all these points, e-mail me rather than
slamming me or others on the list. I and others get hurt by such comments
and feel like giving up. I am a person that tries to see everyone happy and
constructive. I don't like to be bossy as I believe that everyone is in
this together. It has been my dream to get something like ASWA up and
running and without your support and cooperation, it will get tarnished.

Thanks for your valuable time.

Hey John, Chris..

Thanks for that, Andrew Wall and i just nutted it out in ICR.. think
we've got everything down pat now.. apparently it hasn't been used for
20 years! so i hope it works :) 

BTW, can anyone recommend any photography sites? I think mastering the
aperture settings and the likes will take a bit longer..

Skies of Brisbane lookout!! :)

Lindsay and everyone,

Taralga's altitude is 850m, with higher ranges to the west which makes the
orographic rain (and snow) shadow very frustrating. Keep an eye out for
next friday...

Andrew.

The time has come to readdress the T-shirt issue.

Would each of you please email me at cadence at rubix.net.au (NOT the list)
with the following information:

1. polo neck or T-shirt? (you can have any colour so long as it is white
)
2. preference for logo on left breast or back?
3. quantity
4. sizes (S / M / L / XL / XXL / XXXL)

I will discuss costs and delivery with you at a later date, but at the
moment I'm just getting the ball rolling - sorry for the delay but a number
of things got in the way of this.  I'm going to put in the order on Tuesday
15th June - so I'd like to hear from you by next Monday 14th June by 5pm -
if I don't you will be Tshirtless

For those who don't already know, Chris is VERY kindly working on a
program to automatically download data from the AVN and MRF raw data
sites.. as those that use it know, plotting the first 1000 plots is
kinda fun.. but after that it gets a bit tedious :)
