If we thought we had some pretty rough winds, try around 1,800 km/h at the
equator on Saturn!

And for Mt. Crosby (approx 30k's west of Anthony's location):

January 141.5   (av. 165)   [72.5]
February 333.0   (av. 164)   [0.0]
March 78.5   (av. 145)   [40.0]
April 28.0   (av. 86)   [11.5]
May 80.5  (av. 71)  [6.0]
June 114.5  (av. 68)  [0.0]

Total for 6 months: 776.0mm (av. 699mm), but some substantial differences 
for just 30ks!  Figures in brackets are Brisbane means for 140 yrs to 1990 
as according to my Ozzie Weather Book.   Figures in square brackets is my 
rainfall component derived from thunderstorm activity.

Hi all

Its been a wet year so far for my place in southern Brisbane.  I have to 
say
the rainfall over the Qld Sunshine Coast this year would be so much more
than Brisbane and Ballina.

My obs (southern Brisbane)
January:  122.6
February:  238.0
March  118.6
April 55.5
May 86.5
June 194.5

Total for the first 6 months of the last year of 1999:  815.7mm.  Of course
its nowhere near a record, but its way above average.

Just to add to this.  My ex-father in law lived in Katoomba for many years 
and still has a house near the Three Sisters.  He recalls many occasions 
when the fog at Katoomba in early morning was so thick that visibility was 
down to less than 3 meters.  On one occasion he swears he could not see his 
feet and only just make out his hand when held out in front of him.  Have 
any of our Blue Mountains folk experienced this?

Many parts of NW Sydney are also well elevated, Hornsby is around 160m I 
think, so very low cloud will frequently cause fog over that area.  On 
nights when sinking is occurring, one tends to have clear air at Hornsby 
and drive down into the fog at around Chatswood.

John.
p.s. Raining again Brisbane after an interlude this morning.
>snip
However, I do understand that during the night, some of the fogs are
incredibly thick and often it occurs as you approach the Schofields to
Richmond area.

I do recall speaking to Robert Hyde a few years back and he studies the
flow of wind and has done studies of the flow of wind within Sydney. He
suggested that typically the air will circulate in the basin during the
night and sink in the northwestern areas of Sydney. Quite interesting and
it probably explains the lower temperatures and the amount of fogs
experienced in this region.

Morning all.

Dark, dreary and raining here - quite steadily now for a few hours.

Looks like footy will be cancelled again this weekend.....grrr

Feels like an ECL is developing but Im hoping.......its that calm before the
storm. One thing I found interesting for the last 3 nights is the wind
increasing on sunset and becoming quite strong in the early hours  of the
morning.

Currently 10mm rain at Mitchells Island
Dont know Port's figure.

Paul at Port Macquarie.

Hi John and all,

Another 59.1mm overnight here, I'm guessing all the creeks will have
flooded again (simply because everything is saturated).

Rain started with a bang last night, at around 1am, it suddenly became
windy, 10-15kn.  This steadily increased to 20-25kn, and then suddenly,
the rain came pouring down, with winds sustained at 30kn, gusting to
40kn!!!!  Whenever we get gales, I always watch the large tree in my
neighbours yard swaying madly like anything, but it never falls down! 
My guess is that it's extremely flexible...

The 'torrential rain' didn't last long, it soon went back to
light-moderate, but about 5mins after that, it came pouring down again. 
The gutters overflowed in 7mins.

Due to my wanting to have the window open to feel the wind, I then had
to sleep in a wet bed, because the rain had come in :(

So far, we've nearly had our average for July - the July average is
62mm.

This rainfall, while not seem like much, is all very significant
considering winter is meant to be some what of a "dry season" for us.

Anthony from an even soggier Brisbane

My parents also have a home near the Three Sisters and Echo Pt.
They might know your ex-father-in-law. It's a small world:-)
I lived there between 1975 and 1978 with visits at some 
weekends and university holidays after that. From 1974 we had 
another home in Katoomba closer to the Skyway & Caravan Park
that was less "foggy".

As for fog in the area mentioned, from personal experience, 
it often thickens considerably toward the escarpment during 
E TO SE winds. The "fog" is a combination of both the main
cloud base level being below the altitude of the escarpment
and real fog being blown up the escarpment from the valley
below. Go for a walk one day in the area and you'll see what
I mean. Visability can be very bad as you mentioned though 
I have never seen it bad enough not to be able to see one's
feet in the day. Night is another matter with scattering of 
artificial light by the "fog" making visability seem much 
worse to the person shining the light or driving. During the
day the worse I have seen it was zero detail visible beyond
5m. In that case, I could not make out any detail of the 
trees at a known distance from my parent's front door. 
A warm, saturated January day I recall, with the temperature
around 17C in Katoomba and 22C in Sydney. Winter "fogs" (with
temperature 2C to 6C) never seem to be as dense as those 
during the summer. This has something to do with the greater
amount of water present at ~100% humidity in the atmosphere
during warmer conditions.

If there is a point to all this, it is that there are many
"fogs" defined being;

1) Advection fog - a moist, stable air mass is blown over a
cold surface (water, ice), thereby becoming saturated.
2) Radiation fog - a surface radiates energy, thereby cooling
to the point of saturation.
3) Hill fog - is simply low cloud covering the hill tops.
I would argue that this is not a true "fog".
4) Upslope fog - is formed as moist air is driven up a
slope. This often precedes 3) above.
5) Artic / Antartic sea smoke - a rare fog formed when cold
air passes over a warm surface. It is the same effect as 
opening the freezer door during a humid day (I think).

So Katoomba's Three Sister's example is an combination of
"hill fog" (low cloud) and "upslope fog", both of which
I would argue are "cloud".

Hey Ben from Brisbane here..

39mm in the gauge to 9am this morning, with 99% of that falling from
around 12pm last night.. a further 30mm this morning in 2 and a half
hours from a nice little rain storm.. no thunder, but storm intensity
rain and winds with gales at one stage, and still windy here at the
moment (11:30am) with winds 15-20 knots gusting to 25 knots..

It certainly is soggy around Brisbane at the moment.. although the rain
i just had in the past couple of hours was fairly heavy, the creeks
around my house are banking it and flowing very very fast at the
moment.. any rain that falls is simply running straight off because it's
so wet.. It looks like we may have a few days of mainly fine weather
ahead though (we need it), although most models are forecasting some
upper level instability over the weekend.. BOM have backed right off the
upper level action they over the weekend for us at the beginning of the
week.. it will be interesting to see what happens..

Hey Everyone,

Well I am not going to into as much detail at Michael, but yesterdays fog 
didn't penetrate the lower Blue Mountains.
On a 'normal' fog day when I journey down the great western highway I decend 
into the fog at a place called Lapstone Hill, which is where the road starts 
to climb up into the mountains.
Yesterday the fog came up the valleys and up to Mount Riverview, which the 
first ridge you see when you look at the Mountains.

As for now it is foggy, cold and wet.
:)

It won't be long before this yahoo falls into the fate of mother nature
judging by his idiotic, stupid, moronic, uneducated, unintelligent,
immature, simplistic, unethical and unorthodox actions.  Never before
have I read so much crap!

"...I can tell you though, that a Ford Falcon will go through water up
to the windows, and when the water gets deeper you simply chain it to a
big truck and tow it through the river..." <--- Each year, globally
100's of people die by driving through flooded rivers, yet this moron is
claiming it is safe to do!  What utter garbage!!!

Not to mention him standing in winds with potentially lethal debris.  I
could write an essay pulling his report apart, but I won't!

No wonder some people in the public have such a poor image of "storm
chasers" when there are people like this guy out there!!

I've had my rant of the day...

The 1430-1500 Sydney radar loops show the low in NSW perfectly in the
precipitation movement, it's quite spectacular!! It's probably worth going
up to have a look at the middle (looks like a good storm) at but I have to
study. For those who missed it I whacked it up at

To which you can add --- I don't quite know what to call it ---
transpiration fog? On moist cool days in the mountains it is common to
see shreds/wisps/banners of what could be taken for steam rising from
parts of the vegetation, particularly dense rainforest areas. I've
always assumed this is caused by the air under the rainforest canopy
becoming saturated, then drifting into cooler air above the canopy and
condensing. My guess is that you could add this as a third mechanism
at work giving Echo Point its megafogs. 

At Blackheath, I live in Hat Hill Road which is on a long ridge poking
northeast into the Grose Valley. Our densest fogs are summer and early
autumn ones, when moist air rolls up the Grose on an E to NE wind.
Possibly the thickest are those that arrive with a dying seabreeze
front. After an otherwise warm and sunny day, the fog can roll in on
the front usually around sunset, and within half a minute visibility
can go from 50km to 20m. Because the seabreeze air is seldom much
deeper than the height of the Blue Mountains ridge at this point
(about 1000/1100m), the fog is seldom deeper than a few hundred metres
as it rolls across the ridge, and can often then be seen rolling off
the western cliffs into the Kanimbla Valley and dissipating into the
drier, warmer air -- much as Michael described the Sydney fog rolling
over the Illawarra escarpment yesterday, and rather like dry-ice fog
falling out of a sink.

The thickest fogs I've seen would get a visibility rating of 15
metres, given a definition of visibility as the greatest distance at
which substantial items (trees, poles, cars) can be identified in
daylight.

Unlike radiation fog, which (in Australia) almost always clears by
early afternoon, hill and upslope fog can last for extended periods
of time. One particularly notable episode I recall was in December 
1991, when hill fog developed in the NSW Southerh Highlands around
Bowral on the evening of the 27th and persisted almost continuously
until the 31st.

And it's getting better as time goes on. Watch out 'gong and
Camden area there's some action heading your way!

I animated the leading 40 or so images before the latest and
it was like the north wave being turned almost right back on
itself by the approaching cold front with some action in
the middle. I'd be watching for a Severe Thunderstorm Warning
within the next hour or so as there's stacks of moisture about
with some decent wind shear.

At 0510UTC there's a beaut cell ENE og 'gong at < 10km with
40-100 intensity and a great bow shape, maybe a hook echo.

Massive complex of cells developing SW of Camden/Appin at 
10-15km with a patch of 40-100mm but mostly 10-40mm over
an area perhaps 30km by 40km.

This is looking great! and dangerous!:-(

Great to hear all that! Despite my study (!!??) I have indeed been on the
lookout for warnings. The cells haven't been moving far (obvoiosly with the
low) and it's hard to track them. There's one tantallisingly close to the
coast just off us which seems to be moving very slowly WNW - maybe it'll
get Thirroull if it hits the coast...

G'day John,

Lindsay from the Upper Blue Mountains here. Yes, heavy fogs are not
uncommon up here. We get numerous fogs that have very low visibility.
Its not uncommon to get, visibility to say, ten or twenty feet on a
heavy day. I can recall lots of days driving in fog on the highway and
you could barely see anything at all. Basically, fogs are common. 
Steady rain here on Thursday at 11:20am. Temp is five degrees, or
thereabouts. Hope this front drops the temp just a bit more. We had a
real balmy night last night, got down only to six or so.

At the moment (6.30pm) we have a bit of a storm rumbling around us and very
heavy constant rain that has been falling since around 4.30pm.  Rain not
showing much signs of easing - gutters aren't handling the runoff.

I don't know about Sydney, but it's all over here in Wollongong, pressure's
rising from about 1010 and low/rain has passed - I assume Sydney is in a
similar situation...

As was observed on radar, another section developed overhead but briefly.
This system will keep going. I doubt a low will develop near the coast of
Sydney. I think the cloud band itself has moved to far off the coast.

The ECL is still awaited and who knows may not happen???

This person has no respect for mother nature.  Fully agreed with Jimmy
too.

As for the barometric pressure...not sure about Sydney, but we had a
drop of 15hPa in 26hrs, dropping to 1010!  Certainly a very steep
pressure drop for this neck of the woods.

Hi Everyone,

I am thinking about travelling to Melbourne to attend the August meeting of
the Vic Branch of ASWA.

I have found a deal through Qantas which includes 2 nights accommodation and
return economy airfares. The price is $279 per person twin share.

If anyone would like to come along with me to Melbourne could they please
let me know by the end of next week. I am planning on leaving after work on
the Friday and returning Sunday afternoon or evening.

Matthew Piper

P.S. I missed out on seeing any lightning in the city when I left work at
5pm. I was looking for it but didnt see a thing. Plenty of heavy rain around
though at the time which made it hard to keep dry on the way to the station.
