Hi all, especially Sydneysiders
We've noticed some nice colours on the local Sydney radar tonight. What's
happening? Even though the 1330 satpic doesn't indicate high tops at all,
by radar it seems there are areas of heavy rain and small hail.

Hi,
No hail here in Balmain, but man, some massive torrential downpours! A very long time since I have seen rain like that,
just overwhelmed gutters and the like.
Also had some thunder and lightning, but not too much.
Andrew.

Hey James and all,
Well yes I know that Matt Smith and myself noticed the action on radar from
about 11pm when a cell near Nowra went red for a while before dying out.
About half an hour later it looked as though another 6 cells had formed near
Bowral and Camden, although week at first, 2 main cells dominated with one
headin into Bansktown with nice CGs, heavy rain and rice size hail (Matt
Smith reported this and also mentioned some spectacoulour CGs were to be
seen). This storm petered out after an hour but another cell that lasted in
the Red for a while headed straight towards Penrith. The lightning was every
5 seconds or so and I had the pleasure of watching the show at around 2am
from my house.
Matt Smith went out and took some photos and video footage so hopefully we
should get something to remember it.
Later,
James H

Hello everyone,
We got lucky too, like Andrew. The rain
commenced here at 8.35 am, now 9 am and the sun is shining. We have had
19.5 mm. in 25 minutes and our gutters overflowed as well and the garden is
swamped. We couldn't see through the rain past our back fence as it was so
dense. How can I explain what I mean? The drops stayed huge, so the
overall appearance was like being under a waterfall. We only heard three
or four lots of thunder, but it appeared that we only got the edge of the storm
which came straight at us from the ocean.
Judy.

Boy that thing looked awesome on the teev. Reminded me of being in Sydney
in Jan 1995. I was in a bar on Oxford St, and the Cricket from my home
town Adelaide was on the TV. Pretty soon there's images of an amazing
turbulent guster approaching from the north with Bill and Richie talking
about a 'nasty looking storm'. Soon after the wind rain and I think small
hail hit and all the groundstaff had to lie on the covers in the middle of
it to stop them blowing away!
What REALLY pissed me off was that I was looking forward to some severe
Sydney storms that week and I didn't hear one peal of thunder [some heavy
rain though] while back in my usually storm starved home town there was a
fantastic chase opportunity!
That folks, is the weather for you...
Phil, from a typically storm starved Adelaide :)
P.S. Does anyone have any info about a storm in Adelaide then - I think it
was the last week of January.

Sender: aussie-weather-approval at world.std.com
Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com
Hi Everyone,
Is there anyone on the list who is good with scripts or programming??
(Michael Scholly? Chris Maunder?)
A few months ago the guy that runs the AVN raw data site (where we get
the Lifted Index forecasts from) decided to add vertical soundings to
the site - but it seems that he is having a hard time doing so.. a
couple of days ago i got an email from him asking for help setting up
the type of vertical sounding, and the script to plot the sounding.. i
can help with the type of vertical sounding (i asked him to include a
theoretical air parcel line), but when it comes to scripts and
programming it's like you're talking a different language..
If there is anyone out there who would be interested in helping Wesley
out, it would be much appreciated.. we have forecast soundings on the
net at the moment, but they are fairly average - the soundings Wesley is
trying to produce can be a whole lot better, and much much much easier
for people too look at and say "geeze that's a good forecast sounding",
where as at the moment you have to piss fart around and plot the
theoretical air parcel line..
I have pasted the latest email from Wesley, explaining what language the
script is written in, and also a copy of the script he has put together
so far..
If anyone wants to reply to Wesley, his address is
ebis at wesley.wwb.noaa.gov
********
Ben,
My background is in large-scale circulations and climate variability.
So if your friend can design a good plot/script, so much the better.
The script needs to be written in GrADS and can use any variable
that is in the AVN GRIB output file.
My current attempt is
----------------------------------------------------

"run rgbset2.gs" .. this is setting the color scheme
"set background 99"

city. Anyway, they had a mock TV commercial for Oaklahoma with a huge cb in
the background - made me laugh.

Hi again,
Well, we had the rain start here at about 3.30(I think..I was half asleep!), and we had many heavy falls come across
from then until the morning. They were cloudbursts, they would just start dumping huge raindrops in massive quantities.
Andrew.

to be updated manually by the webmaster of ASWA... We will just have to
wait for the WA guys to wake up and get online so we can remind them :)

Hello Everyone, Arial
We are unable to access the Radar in the Members section this morning. Is everyone having this difficulty or is it just lucky us. When we click on any of the sections it comes up with a request for a password. Can anyone help. Judy.

.....BoM changes the password on the

1st!!!!!!) - Greg will be able do it on the site.........should be rectified
fairly promptly.

A wild guess... but perhaps the problem may be with the BOM (not the ASWA site
which I understand has the new password already programmed in and is triggered
by the time/date on users computer clocks??).
Anyway this was on the BOM Vic fire weather briefing page and posted a short
while ago:
"Victorian Fire Weather Briefing
Issued at 1122 on Tuesday the 1st of February 2000
PLEASE NOTE : THE BUREAUS COMPUTER IS CURRENTLY DOWN AND ONLY LIMITED
INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE. THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO BE UP AND RUNNING SOON/.
A high pressure system is currently located in the Tasman and is directing a
warm to hot northeast flow over the state. Conditions will be milder along the
coast due to seabreezes. Estimates issued this morning look ok, based on
limited data.
Wednesday will be warm to hot with a north to northwest flow. Preliminary
estimates may be issued later when the system is up and running however, only
minor changes are expected to the current forecast for Wednesday. Fire danger
is expected to be very high and extreme in the northwest."

I don't know how the ASWA Web-master set up the radar password
changeover. As far as the radar archive that I keep for ASWA is
concerned the password changed at 09:10 AEST when accessing
IDR031.gif which the script detected and then tried the new
password with success thereafter and no lost images. So it must
have changed between 09:00 and 09:10 as the archive runs every
10 mins with the January password used at 09:00 and the February
password at 09:10.

Please read my words below again...the archive I run works
OK only because the BoM radar password changeover was handled
successfully by the archive scripts that I wrote. I DO NOT
USE THE ASWA SITE. Therefore, the ASWA site has NOT handled
the BoM password change at all or successfully. There is
no need to refresh, reboot or otherwise malaise your own
computer or its software. For once, I cannot blaim Bill
Gate's software:-) The ASWA webmaster needs to affect the
required password change in the ASWA radar scripts ASAP...

I read your words below it it mentioned nothing about you archiving radar
direct from the BOM - it only said that you had no problem with the password.
Hence the logical conclusion is that it was the ASWA password - as all emails
have been directed towards that.

Ummm, I've lost count of the number of messages that I've
sent about archiving...never have I mentioned getting radar
via the ASWA site...I have only ever mentioned facts about
obtaining BoM radar images et al.
> ... - it only said that you had no problem with the password.
That's because the archive scripts that I wrote handle the
change authomatically. That has failed once when a spurious
character was copied from E-Mail by mistake:-(
> Hence the logical conclusion is that it was the ASWA password
> - as all emails have been directed towards that.
All confusion is now understood...The problem is not with
the ASWA password as it is presumed that you can log into
ASWA OK. I can and that password is individual to each ASWA
member, hasn't changed for yonks and does it need to change
every month. You wouldn't be able to load the map with all
the radar sites on it if your ASWA authorisation failed.
As for BoM radar (we have been writing about that alone I
should think), for "radar" operation "in principle", when
one clicks on a radar site from the map, the ASWA radar
script spawns an authorisation to BoM. If that is OK, then
the required radar image is downloaded to your browser. If
it fails, a window appears that says "Authorisation Failed"
with some fields and buttons to use. It is the ASWA radar
script authorisation that is failing. I have checked the
operation just 15 minutes ago and confirmed that the
January BoM radar password is being offered instead of
the February BoM radar password. The ASWA webmaster must
change the password used in the radar scripts at the
ASWA site to resolve this problem.
For any authorisation failure, if you click to the
failed authorisation, you'll see the user-id being used.
In the case of the ASWA site, this will be your ASWA
membership id. In the case of accessing a BoM radar image,
this will be the BoM radar user-id assigned to ASWA.
When the problem is resolved you will need to complete a
proper refresh of your browser ( in Netscape).
This will refresh the ASWA page with the changes needed.
Sorry that I can't fix the problem as I don't have any
authority or means of altering the script being used. As
I said before, the radar archive remains intact. Please
see previous mail for a list of radar sites covered...

Lindsay,
there is some good information on this site:
http://www.anbg.gov.au/projects/macquarie/macq-report.html
A brief extract answering your question follows:
"Macquarie Island is a subantarctic island lying just outside of the antarctic
convergence (c. 54.5 deg S, 159 deg E), almost
1500 km SE of Hobart. It is an approximately N-S strip of land 34 km long and 5
km wide and 250-350 m high, vainly trying
to interrupt the onslaught of the 'furious fifties'. It is a tectonically active
area, the island rising at a rate of c. 5 mm per year.
The weather on Macquarie Island is both uniform and unpredicable, or uniform in
its unpredictability. Rain can be expected on
more than 300 days of the year (c. 900 mm/y) and the wind blows strongly and
constantly from the west; the air temperature
oscillates only a few degrees from 5 oC from day to day and throughout the year.
While it is quite true to describe it as very
windy, cold and wet, it is a common occurrence to experience all four seasons in
one day."

Still hasn't as far as I've seen (although there have been one or two
days when I haven't seen the paper).

Worth noting in this respect that there was an magnitude 8.3 earthquake
not too far away from Macquarie Island in May 1989.
As I understand it, the met.station is at one end of the island (not
sure which one) and is therefore on an exposed site even by the island's
standards.

Evidently a new definition of 'summer' exists that I wasn't previously
aware of (with apologies to the Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy).

An update: GASP has backed off a little on the heatwave for Melbourne
on Friday, but other models still have it at full intensity. UKMO,
in particular, is also suggesting that the forecast Wednesday night
change will have little or no impact on Melbourne, and that Wednesday
will be somewhat hotter than the forecast 34. The models diverge
considerably as to what happens after Friday - some are hinting that
the hottest air will only be pushed slightly inland, to return on
Monday. Anywhere inland looks like being seriously hot right through
- Mildura could well be looking at 5-7 consecutive days over 40.
SA is heating up (33 in Adelaide at 11.30) and drying out, with
dewpoints widely near zero (meaning relative humidities around 10%).

Hi everyone,
You have heard enough about the storms in Sydney by now but I thought I
might add the Schofields version of it.
Well I feel young again. I do recall those early mornings when you would
wake up as a thunderstorm made its presence felt - loud bangs of thunder
and then flashes of bright lightning bolts. You would ring the BoM at 2am
and they would wonder if you are nocturnal!! They feel pretty good in fact
because they feel they are not the only shift workers around studying the
storms. (Unfortunately, this sort of fun is no longer possible at the
Sydney Bureau...Oh well)
Well it finally happened here at Schofields. And as per usual, when they do
occur in these situations, we are not so disappointing after all. We tend
to get our heavy falls in these late night early morning situations. This
is what happened last night. It lasted about 10 minutes - I am not
surprised about the hail as I thought I heard tiny "tink" sounds on the
window sill and window. The drops were large as well. The storms were
moving E but developing to the N as Matt Smith said. There was one very
close lightning bolt and massive bang of thunder!!! I enjoyed it and then
went back to sleep. I knew if I put the computer on to see the radar, I
would probably stay awake and talk to someone. Oh well..
We had 12mm of rain mostly say in 10 minutes. Don't take this as official

Hi everyone,
Just to get people together, Mario and I have decided to go to the The Mean
Fiddler for a few drinks and just some fun and laughs.
Place: Cnr Windsor & Commercial Rds
Rouse Hill NSW 2155
Ph: (02) 9629 4811 of the Mean Fiddler if you need it
Date: Saturday 5th February 2000
Time 7 - 8pm
By the way this is not an ASWA event as such so anyone can come and go if
they wish. Bring friends and so on. Males and females!!!! Especially
females to make the balance. This is an Irish Pub and so you need
reasonable dress code - Collar shirts for Males etc... You could eat here
if you wish but meats you cook yourself.
see you there remember this Saturday

Hi Everyone
I must appologise for the problems with the radar. As I am working 2 jobs at
the moment it became one of those things that unfortunately got forgotten until
I got a phone call from Anthony Cornelius today. I have made the changes to the
radar site now so everything should be working properly
Once again I appologise for the mixup

it seems radar has been down all day - at least i can still request it
from the radar archives..

Probably the most intense storm moved along the coast early this
morning.
Reports of local flooding in areas never vbefore affected.
North Manly AWS (a gauge from Manly Hyd. Labs) recorded 52.5 mm
-apparently all fell in less than 20 minutes, Manly Dam itself 40.5 mm
in 15 minutes. Local reports indicate that 75% of the ran fell in the
first 5-10 mins with visibility less than 20 metres.
The storm cell curved NNE and weakened off the northern beaches around 9
am. Radar showed nice red blob for over an hour in centre

I do not know the exact size, but it is sub antarctic around 55's. I think
the highest points are still under 1000m ( 700-800m ) if I remember right,
rather than a peak it is a long plateau. There is vegetation but it is
grass, moss and strange cabbage looking plants. Lots of seals and Penguins
and Albatross. Probably see less storms then even the Illawarra. Seriously
storms would be very rare.
Back in the late 1960's and 1970's when everyone thought there was going to
be a nuclear war it was always my first pick to escape the fallout.

Hi Michael,
They are exellent pictures!! Rosco and I saw that supercell go up, and
boy did it go up in a hurry.. looked fantastic too, but congestus soon
formed between us and NE NSW blocking our view..
You guys seem to have had a better season than us down there.. can't
wait to get my digi cam out there in a good season.. i can picture it
now, sitting up on Mount Cootha watching the mofo guster approach the
city, with steam coming off my digi cam as i click away.. i hope Febuary
takes off storm wise (after this wreched high in the Tasman buggers off
that is)..
Oh yeah - a couple more pictures ppl might be interested in which i
forgot to post - Alzheimer's at 21 years of age??
Stumbled on this today! Someone went and named a park after me :P

The highest peak on Macquarie Is land is Mt Hamilton at 433 metres. The island
is a long plateau which rises steeply from mainly shingle beaches. The dominant
vegetation is tussock grass which covers the majority of the island. The base
is located on a narrow isthmus located at the northern end of the island
between Wireless hill to the north and the plateau to the south.
The Macquarie Is Cabbage doesn't actually look like a cabbage, but can be cooked
and eaten. I can't recall if it tasted like cabbage, but I think it was used
by the sealers as a source of vitamin C.
Severe storms are rare, but waves can break from one side of the isthmus to the
other, dumping tons of kelp. The average wind is about 20 knots and it is rare
to have a calm day - it made for interesting 1200 gm balloon launches if the
wind was from east as you had to walk them under the antennas before release.
I think it has rain, hail sleet or snow on over 300 days a year. It is uncommon
to get a substantially cloud free day however 8 oktas of stratus is pretty
common.
Mark.

The BoM's climate figures for Macquarie Island make fascinating reading. The
links is:

The constancy of both rainfall amounts and temperatures are pretty amazing..

Hi all.
3 big storms tonight - one still going beserk with lightning every1 -
2 seconds to the ENE near Pt Stuart.
I got drenched while training with one of the storms :(
at least it cooled it off - otherwise its damm hot - and it feels like
you are breathing underwater.
BOM are now trying to establish a Radar site somewhere near
Wyndham area - they have found the spot on a headland with a
great clear view - but they are having some difficulties with Telstra
atm re: towers but hopefully this time next year there will be a
weatherfinder radar up there - at last! Now you can watch those
monstrous Kimberley Storms while also being able to track
Cyclones etc.
Paul.
