I think the figure mentoined was 7.5 inches and it was mentioned as being greater than the annual average.

Don,

There was some footage on ABC TV news on
Saturday night (I think) showing scenes
of water flowing through the streets.

Also showed shots of vehicles washed away
along drainage lines and made the point
that a lot of locals - unused to any
significant precipitation - panicked and
engaged in inappropriate escape activities
(like crossing flooded streams etc).

Can't recall if the report actually
mentioned a rainfall figure. I think I
would have remembered a figure as high
as you are quoting...

Hi Don

There was an article on it in the telegraph in sydney a couple of days
ago.. i think possibly friday or saturdays paper, in the "world news"
section it was the first story,and it had a photo of a road washed away.

Michael,
Curtin Springs (SE of Ularu)reported 989 mm for the week - obviously a
coding error - it should have been 0.8 or 0.9 mm but "got through" the
system all the way.

Howdy Don, Patrick & All..

My Nan is currently in LA (amazing.....) and I ran her to ask what the figure
was as the media here reported there was 75mm (which I thought was strange as
they Americans use  inches ..) so I got her to check - She was told 7.5 inches
(which sounds about right - which is what Patrick Thought). She was lucky not to
be involved in the major flooding, but she did describe the rain as sounding
"like a freight train".

--> Terry Bishop - I thought I read an email saying he was going offline for a
few weeks.....not sure though.

Good rains here on the weekend - total for weekend is 35mm most received Sunday
Morning - Night. Monthly total now is some 50mm which is 2/3 the average
already. If this Low does take off - which is looking doubtful I reckon - we
could be in for major flooding in the area as there is allot of water lying
around, and the river is already running fresh.

Presently large CB just off the Coast (Id say about 50kms) with ominous dark
bases, but no major organisation as yet. Still there is some decent convection
going on.............

PS - A Big thankyou for the excellent team at Weather21 - I rang there viewer
feedback line to let them know of the rain we had received (as the radar
coverage is poor) and the Presenter on the day, Alan Humphries rang me back and
had a great chat!! Was most welcome!

One thing that Alan and I noted was the direction that the rain was coming from
the NE!! - considering the BOM had gone for SE'ers .

So if you have any interesting Weather - let the Team at Weather21 know as they
love real time data, especially from viewers, and they may even mention your
name on National TV!!

Paul at Port.

Hi

38mm here in Burwood to 9am this morning, all of it falling since about
10pm the night before. It would have to be the best fall here for months,
and on the AWS at 9am Observatory Hill recorded 50mm.

Hi Jimmy here in Schofields.  Perhaps we should all add to this e-mail to 
see what happened around the place in terms of rainfall. Like myself, Don 
White loves to study the rainfall variations around Sydney.

Schofields   11.6mm   Mainly in the early hours of the morning.

Been raining steadily here in North Sydney since about 9pm last night. Was
heavy at time through the evening. Currently eased back to light rain, but
low cloud half way down the higher buildings.

It was the same here on Sunday - with Low cloud to I would say 500ft even
obscurring small "hills" including the hills on Oxley & Mitchells Island........

Not raining here - still overcast and no wind.

Been raining steadily here in North Sydney since about 9pm last night. Was
heavy at time through the evening. Currently eased back to light rain, but
low cloud half way down the higher buildings.

Hi all,

No rain received in Canberra as yet  we have overcast
conditions with showers visible to the N and NW.

The sky looks a bit like a summer trough morning 
A few precipitating alto cumulus with a some cu
starting to form over the Brindabellas. A few Ci
visible through holes in the AC.

Middle level cloud coming from NNW, surface winds
from ESE.

I would expect some decent showers later on.

Patrick

PS John Woodbridge should get the credit for
having the right figure for the Las Vegas rain.

This was quite an interesting event. I was in South Australia over
the weekend and, coming north towards Adelaide, ran into thick fog
just north of Meningie (on the coast, 150km SE of Adelaide) at about
4 p.m. This persisted until near the top of the Adelaide Hills. I
believe that fog locally persisted all day around the Murray River.

There were also areas of fog around Adelaide during Sunday morning.
The football commentators were making a big deal of it, but I wouldn't
have said there was anything more than haze by the time I got to the
game at 1.15.

The media reports I've seen said 75mm, but 7.5 inches would also
seem credible to me, given the apparent scale of the flooding.

Las Vegas Airport has only recorded 1.33 inches (33mm) for the month
so far, but, as I'm sure most of you would be aware, thunderstorm
flooding can be very localised (and I don't know how far out of town
Las Vegas Airport is).

For those who don't know yet - I will be attending the ASWA AGM in
Sydney (July 31, Saturday night).  I look forward to meeting everyone
down there - and putting my two bob worth in!  And I hope to meet many
other travellers and/or interstaters as well!

Just thought I'd let everyone know...it's still not too late to say
you're coming too, but you'll need to tell Jimmy soon!

Howdy all.

The radio announcers here have just made a big deal of the BOM's revised
forecast for the next 4 days being upgraded or downgraded to rain.

I am interested to hear if that's because they suspect that the Low will
intensify or for what reasons? Anyone want to take a shot at it? It doesn't look
like ECL action here at the moment - its overcast with the occasional shower but
the sky has that "light" look about it with no dark ominous patches anywhere.

Last ECL that I remember the sky was very dark with deep convection occurring
out to sea the day before action developed. Quite the opposite here at the
moment.

Hi Paul

Models are indicating a rain situation, the low staying off the coast (if i
remember) but rain all down the NSW coast.AVN predicted it a few days ago,
as did MRF, and now GASP has caught on as well, should be interesting none
the less

So far 8mm today, and the sun is shining for the 1st time today as i write
this.

The latest ECMWF run has a deep low off the northern NSW coast - I'd
guess that is what the revised NSW forecast is responding to.

Thanks for the information - I now gather 100-150 mm of rain fell
between 10.30 am and 11.30 am in the NW of the city. The air port, from
memory (hazy in more ways than one) from my last visit in 1975 is to the
Se of the main strip. Strange time for a storm of that quality and
location, don't you think??

Hi Don,

in a way, it would be somewhat unusual, but on Jan 28, 1998 we had some
very heavy storm rains, up to 150mm in 90mins in some places.  This
occurred at lunch time, I remember this event, because the drains at
school blocked up, and we were all standing on tables and chairs as the
quadrangle flooded with water.  To my knowledge, storm tops reached 16km
during these storms, but more storms north of Brisbane formed with tops
to 18.9km.

At 9am, CAPE was 1995 and LI's were -6.5 - but the cap was very weak,
which was why the storms occurred so early.  I'm presuming that a
similar scenario occurred in Las Vegas.  The PW values were also high,
about 55 - but moisture advection plays a large part in flood rain
storms.

There is some footage of the floods on
the US Weather Channel site at
http://www.weather.com/weather_center/full_story/full1.html

The site also advises that flash flood
watches continue for the SW US with
more storms forecast on top of recent
rains.

Only 1 or 2 light showers so far in
Canberra. BoM has upgraded to showers
tending to rain periods for us
tomorrow.

The four-day forecast that's just come out for Sydney reads:

Wednesday: Rain, heavy at times
Thursday: Rain, heavy at times
Friday: Rain

Could be some interesting river levels if this materialises...

Quite warm for July here in Perth today, currently at 3:25pm, the
temperatures was sitting at 23.5C, I'd say the max would have got to about
24C an hour ago or so.

These warm northerly winds are ahead of this impressive looking cold front,
due overnight or tomorrow morning, with thunderstorms and strong winds on
it. We havent had any action here in Perth for about 2 weeks or so, its
about time!

I would suggest people look at the radar at the moment off Sydney and you 
will see a localised rotation SE of Sydney  Very interesting.

For those who don't have radar on, check the following link but do not 
bookmark it as it will not remain there

http://www.australiansevereweather.simplenet.com/temp/radar/07121800.gif

Enjoy. For those without radar, you should join ASWA and for $30 you get 
free radar.

Not missing out for change, light rain most of day from about 4am this
morning, but heavier rain started about 3pm, very heavy in the last hour
from 5.30pm, my roof gutter is overflowing. Radar indicates that there is
not much in Sydney ? Radar also shows an interesting section of pink about
50 kms off the coast. This is interesting if looped as there seems to a
degree of micro circulation around it, I know the models have a ECL off
north coast, but there may be a weaker circulation just offshore Sydney -
Wollongong. The Austar animated satellite ( which is excellent ) shows that
cloud literally exploded off the central NSW coast today.

Point to think about, but it looks like a damp couple of days and perhaps
some flash flooding if the present stuff keeps up.

I did hear your name mentioned too ! 20mm I think.

It is a pity that the city folk cannot get Weather 21 as their stuff is
excellent. The animations of radar and sat are what I like.

Seven Hills 20.8mm to 6pm,12.8 of it to 6am and probably most of the
rest up to 10am.

I notice the Bureau (or is the forecast wording due to the elliptic
proclivities of the media?) is going for heavy rain up to Friday.
I'm a bit doubtful that will eventuate..if it does it'll be the
exception, I think..

This is probably a dumb question but is that why the rain has eased in
Sydney itself (ie we are just to the north of this circulation)?

In a way yes  the cloud moved off the coast and has begun to develop  this 
is a separate circulation from the one off NNSW

Quite intersting. In 1974, a circulation similar to this moved up the coast 
of Sydney and Central Coast during May and it caused a lot of damage!!! 
This is remaining stationary but perhaps moving slightly W-NW

That was the one (I think) that 'exploded' off Newcastle or Gosford as a
secondary depression to one further out in the Tasman Sea, this
happening as soon as it moved offshore from the southwest. I think that
day we had a huge thunderstorm move in from the southeast dumping at
least 40mm in most places with cloud tops up to 40,000 feet..

Hi everyone,
A rotating, oceanic thunderstorm was spotted on radar off Sydney.  The radar 
even showed a hook shaped echo for about 30 minutes before the whole thing 
collapsed.  I speculate: a type of low, convective energy supercell.  It was 
moving very slowly and although supercells tend to move quickly at around 
85% of the mean tropospheric wind, it can vary significantly and, of course, 
depends on the average tropospheric wind speed.

I sent an email to Terry but no reply. It seems unusual because he was

it suddenly stopped. Maybe I could go back into old mail and see if he
has a phone number. Is that too intrusive? Whaddya think?

Don was talking about the falls of snow in the 1890's and thereabouts
compared to now and how they had at least one heavy fall of snow each
year, even up to Queensland.

Um, he was also talking about the snow season in the Alps looking a
little dismal at the moment and that there wasn't much sign of it
changing. Mind you, as it came out today, (Monday) it may have been
written a day or three ago.

Hi all,

I was watching Storm Warning on channel 10 tonight, and one thing caught my
attention. On the program a meteorologist said that a halo around the moon
was an early sign of incoming fronts/storms, does anyone know if this can
be used as an early sign of incoming storms???

I have seen a few nights where a halo was present around the moon, but I
had always known it was due to ice crystals high in the atmosphere, but I
am unsure if a frontal system was coming in at the time I saw it.

Hi Andrew,

What actually causes the moon halo is cirrostratus (which is a thin
layer of ice crystals high in the troposphere).  Cirrostratus sometimes
precedes a cold front, and a cold front sometimes brings thunderstorms. 
I have not used the word 'often' here, because I disagree with that -
it's a generalisation, and I was surprised that a professional
meteorologist actually said it.  Any wx person knows that there's far
too many exceptions to use that example, and such patterns rarely occur
outside 30-60degrees N/S of the equator.

I personally wouldn't use this, unless you actually knew there was a
cold front coming (ie from sat pics).

Hope this helps,

Anthony Cornelius

Andrew,

High cloud is generally (but obviously not necessarily) associated with
pre-cold-frontal weather. Pre-cold-frontal weather is sometimes (but even
less necessarily) associated with storms. Both of these are a byproduct of
the rising air and instability ahead of cold fronts.

Lindsay,
What I was saying that there is little indication at the moment of
significantly cold air advection across SE Austrlaia. Some progs go for
upslide on Thursday - Friday and with SSE'ers bringing in moisture there
may be a little snow about the peaks. What we need is a good, cold SW
outbreak. .... a maturing frontal system, sweeping up from the SW under
Adelaide, rather than maturung systems weakening as they drift SE across
the Bight. Time will tell.

Looking at the radar ( 11.15pm ) and there is a large area of yellow / green
reflect moving from E/NE towards the south of Illawarra, we have had some
heavy rain around evening, then moderate since. This next load may just
brush past with the largest falls from Kiama to Nowra.

It should be an interesting night !!!!

I was thinking that very thing myself ! if the larger low off NSW north
coast develops it should straighten things out a little and the heavy rain
return. You had your turn last night, we are having ours tonight.
