Hi all, finally a decent lightning show near Darwin. Have just been down to 
the wharf and took about 2 hours or so lightning video which will hopefully 
come out ok as it was my first real go at doing that. Lightning was every 
second at stages and probably averaged about one every three or four for the 
last 4 hours. Hopefully a display like the one I got from Edith Falls while 
doing a tour of the Top End 10 days or so ago repeats itself here. It was a 
camping tour so unfortunately it wasn't practical to take my video camera 
:-(.  That was probably up in the best 2 or 3 I have ever seen, only a 
couple I saw last year up here were better.

Just good to see storms around again after a few days of late Dry type 
weather over the last week or so

Good luck to all on the Big Chase

Chris

Hi ppls,

With the passage of the tropical rain band Adelaide had a couple of small 
thunderstorms roll through at about 7:30am local time. One did make it to 
Pink on radar but looked disorganized and looked as though it would fade 
out, but as luck would have it, it stayed that way for about 30 minutes 
before turning to a slightly lesser green. I managed to see one lightning 
bolt from it, mainly because the rest of the lightning was inside or on the 
other side of the rain, making it virtually impossible to detect visually.
The rest of the day looks hopeful heaps of convection around and by the 
looks of radar and sat pics plenty of rain around also. Will keep you all 
updated through out the day if anything more happens.

BoM have forcasted more storms later so fingers crossed..

Hey Ben from Brisbane here..

I think it was Michael Thompson who thought there could be a supercell
on the darling downs from the System that we had earlier on this week?
It turns out that a severe storm (probably a supercell) tore through the
eastern Darling Downs late Tuesday afternoon.. I have slapped up a quick
report for the recent events section of BSCH.. 

http://www.bsch.simplenet.com/products/recentevents.htm

Radar loops of the storm are also available.. i estimate the storm
lasted over 3 hours, and it was red on radar for 1 hour and 40 mins of
that time..

Howdy all.

Was woken up with the best sound this morning - thunder.

Near stationary storm now been sitting on the Northern suburbs for at
least 2 hours - with pink still on radar. Thunder every 1 minute -
should be getting some reasonable totals there!

The storm from Thursday dumped 39mm on Palmerston & NT Wildlife park in
25 minutes!

Alayngula in 24 hrs to 9am Friday had 114mm!!

Now time for some rain here! - Sprinkles this morning but nothing more
yet.

Paul at Darwin.

Good to see somebody reads my messages, actually the charts tamed somewhat,
but the essential ingredient - the jet stream was there.

Thanks
Michael
