Canberra has had light rain from around 8.00am. I have received 3.5mm so far in Higgins. The rain is increasing in intensity (at 12.00 noon Sunday) and this trend should continue looking at the mass of blues and a bit of yellow on the radar to the west. Interesting that the precipitation currently falling in the ACT does not show on the radar - even though it is falling from a middle level cloud band. The rain currently falling in the Snowy Mtns (see http://www.ski.com.au/info/snowcams/charlotte.html ) also does not show on the radar so there is a definite hole in radar coverage over SE NSW. As befitting the rain in the mtns, temperatures are quite mild: it has been around 8 or 9 degrees for most of the morning.

It'll get heavier later no doubt when the stuff from Wagga comes over this way...but will it follow me back to Wollongong tonight??? An uncontrollable bit of excitement is just starting to creep into me about the prospects for snow here (and at yours Lindsay!) next Saturday...models have been fairly consistent up until now forecasting a nice deep SW stream and 540 thickness action. *waiting*...

Mind you it wasn't very impressive due to the lack of some heavy lightning for me to test out my new camera, but I was happy to hear the rumbling of thunder after a long dry spell. I was about to chase this storm but my car decided to bleed transmission fluid all over my driveway, which I actually thought was a cat being churned up by the fan at first. After changing cars it was too late to chase as the storms rear was headding away from us at a few knots faster than the speed limit. We did go to the local lookout to see a huge wall of heavy rain bearing down on us quickly, by the time we were half way down the hill it was well on top of us and small hail was hitting the car. So unaffected by another bust chase, we headed back home to see a few more Cb's develop throughout the day, but nothing came out of them except rain and a touch of hail. I did manage to get a picture of a nice fake funnel with a small Cb behind it, looked quite interesting (and I did get the bino's out just to make sure it was fake). So for the rest of the day I have been updating my picture gallery for my 117 or so pictures ranging from my Astropictures to Misc, with some weather ones rolled into it aswell. It can be found at http://lightning.virtualave.net/gallery.htm beware of the popup's as I have not yet added the code to stop it. Well the storms should be rolling in Melbourne now so I will say goodbye to all and return to the Kitchen for some tea..
