Try looking at the header to see where it come from and complain to the ISP,

Hi all,
Third day in a row my thermometer's dropped to zero. Three ground frosts
in a row. THAT has to be pretty rare in Adelaide (last time back in
June/July 1982?? or is that overstating the case). The only other ground
frost I've recorded here this year was in April - bizzare.
Boy, it's staring to get pretty dry here though.

Dry here too Phil, looks like being the third dry winter in a row here In
1997 we only had 59% of our winter average rain, last year 79% of average
and so far this year we have had 48% of the average winter rain. Dane

Hi all,
What are anyones thought on GASP this season? Apart from the glitch a few
months ago I think it has been reasonable. All models I have seen show the
possibility of a mild, brief cold snap and snow for next Monday...I guess
from what I have seen this season it's far to early to say anything!! Always
interesting to watch though...

Yes - one was posted for waters north of Cardwell about 30 minutes
after I posted! Also strong wind warnings for the central WA coast
and far southern Tasmania (although the latter has been finalised).

Howdy all. Plenty of Cells off the Mid North Coast at the moment. Most are quite
impressive with strong convection and cumuliform anvils. There seems to be a
very strong looking cell to the South - somewhere near the Newcastle region.
The forecast is for showers this afternoon......... and with the decent
convection occurring off the coast maybe there will be some action later.

Hi everyone,
There could be some interesting weather with this upper level cold pool
across SE Australia. 500 temps are now close to -30 and fell from around
-19 on the 1st (data from Williamtown). Since yesterday, there has been a
further 2c reduction (approximately). Most of the instability is being
realised in the far NE of the state and also off the coast (Cb's can be seen
off Sydney).
The most unstable air shows up above approximately 600Hpa and the TTI is
around 57 (heavy thunderstorms).
If this cold pool is maintained, we could see more wide spread rain and
thunderstorm activity if the SE airstream intensifies...
- Paul G.

Most of pics are taken at the small end of my zoom, I have a 35-105mm zoom
and rarely use the 105mm. Therefore I would not worry too much, a 28-70mm is
ideal in my books and that will be what I hope to get down the track with my
next camera.

As Paul noted there was a particularly impressive cell offshore Newcastle
this afternoon, I could see it clearly from here in Warilla
( Shellharbour ), the bad news is that as the day wore on the Cb's retreated
further and further NE.

Hi Everyone,
I too have noticed the storms off the coast today. When I was travelling
down to work from 7:30 to 9 a.m. I noticed a large cell to the east of the
city. This then moved off to the NE as Michael has mentioned and for the
rest of the day there was only some cumulus left. Today was the third day in
a row that I have observed storms but todays seemed to be the best so far.

Hi all
Further to the emails titled: "storms off the Mid North NSW Coast"...
It was yet another day of storms off the Qld South Coast. This morning they
appeared very impressive (for Winter especially) and they kept developing
all day a certain distance off the coast. Under one of the showers/weak
storms off Maroochydore a waterspout was filmed. (It was on Ray Wilkie's
Channel 10 Weather Report). It was very shakey footage but nevertheless a
ragged shaped funnel and a spray at sealevel were evident. Probably not the
only spout around - but the only one on film.
Regards
James Chambers, Brisbane
