It sure has been dry. I recorded 12.4mm in february, and 27.1mm in January,
for a grand total of 39.5mm to date this year. These are both the lowest I
have ever recorded at this house, but they are also the highest too. I only
moved here six months ago :)
Nevertheless both months are far below normal, which is in the region of
120mm for each month.
There was a bit of rain earlier tonight. Perhaps another fraction of a
millimetre to start March off.

I was up in Charters Towers during Dec/Jan doing uni work in a gold mine. As I expected, many of the storms shot straight up and then collapsed back on themselves, usually lasting less that an hour and not moving at all. The only interesting thing about them was the way they went up to a fairly low level, then started to spread out into an anvil. The updrafts then broke though the anvil, looking like an overshooting top, and continued upwards, doing the same once again before forming a final anvil. I've got some photos of this somewhere - it's just something I've never seen before.
The good (severe J) storms, however, moved in from the W or SW. On the day I saw the 2 tornadoes (10th Jan) I wasn't actually looking for storms, a mate and I just went for a run up Towers Hill. From the top, there was a very dark cell to our NW, another to our W and a line of storms continuing as far S as we could see. It all looked very cool. I almost fell of the rock I was sitting on when I looked more closely at the NW cell and saw the tornado. The storm was about 20-25 k's away, so it all looked very small, but the funnel very distinct, all the way from the cloud to ground (or maybe over the horizon?). The wall cloud it was under looked very much like the Sandon tornado (Photo 21, storm spotter handbook) one, except in reverse - I was looking from the opposite direction maybe. The funnel was much more defined than that in the photo, but I could see no dust near the base (over the horizon?) There was very heavy rain right of the wall cloud which slowly moved across!
and enveloped the tornado in about 10 minutes L so the show was over. It all looked very much liked the idealised supercell in figure 2, except looking the other way. It was about 6:15 when the when it disappeared.
The wall cloud in the next cell southwards looked to be a very well defined rectangular shape (so it was probably circular), but nothing much was happening at the time except bit of scud floating around the place. Around 6:45 I looked at this cell again and couldn't believe my eyes - a very dark funnel was coming almost horizontally out of the LHS of the wall cloud and then bending around towards the ground. This tornado was much darker than the previous - almost black and very opaque. It lasted for about 5 minutes until it rose up into the wall cloud. Again, there was heavy rain from this cell just to the right of the wall cloud.
Of course I didn't have a camera with me that day but I did a couple of rough sketches. They where such a long way away that they didn't looked that spectacular - in fact the bloke I was with was hardly interested.
There was a report in the local rag a few days later that Julia Creek was hit by a """""Mini""""" tornado the next day - few roofs missing and that.
Hope this made some sense

Daniel...
It's been dry here (around Sydney) - probably one of the driest areas in
the whole of Austrlaia this summer. Even Melbourne has doubled parts of
Sydney and Adelaide is slightly ahead of us ! so, areallly speaking, La
nina's doing its job

Hi Daniel and list,
The press promoted myth that La Nina means high rainfall for all can be
investigated by visiting
http://www.dnr.qld.gov.au/longpdk/
and looking at the maps there.
For the area you refer to, looks about El Normal.
A bit different up here in Proserpine where our February rain (unofficial)
was around 1 000 mm. Not quite record material (1 117 mm official), but
awful bloody wet!
And in case the southern press has us smashed to pieces by Steve, the
cyclone influence did not come within hundreds of kilometers of us.
See ya,
Bill,
Proserpine, NQ.

Mind you, Adelaide's just recorded it's hottest Feb since 1976, and our
'above average rain' virtually all fell in 2 days. Feburary has also been
appallingly humid for us types used to 30% Rel Hum or less and dew points
less than 10deg. Would have been okay if we'ed had decent storms ;)
Now it looks like most of nex week will be hot too. I wan't a 'real' cool
change please!

Hi,
The Madden-Julian Oscillation seems to come up a bit in things I've read
lately. Although it's more a climate question, I was wondering if
someone could give a de-jargonified account of what it is, or else a
decent reference.
Thanks.
Jason.

This is probably a good time to remind everyone that a wide variety of
rainfall maps (totals, deciles, % of normal for periods ranging from
the month to date up to 36 months) is available at:
http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/
The three-month decile map for summer shows that (using the eyeball
method of spatial averaging), about 75-80% of Australia recorded
rainfall in the top 30% of recorded falls, and only about 5% recorded
rainfall in the bottom 30%.
The largest dry area was in NSW east of longitude 150 (roughly a line
from Nowra to Moree), with some pockets in the lowest 10% on the
Northern Tablelands. Other smaller dry areas occurred on and immediately
inland from the Queensland coast south of Rockhampton, central Tasmania,
and some very isolated pockets on Cape York, the interior Top End and
around Carnarvon.

Hi Jason. I will repost a bit of blurb that I wrote a couple of months ago
about the MJO. I'm not really aware of a good non technical reference at
present, but a good starting point is probably Madden and Julian's review
paper:
Madden, R.A., and P.R. Julian, 1994: Observations of the 40-50 day
tropical oscillation: A review. Mon. Wea. Rev., 122, 814-837.
I hope this helps...

Subject: Re: aus-wx: Active MJO
Hi Paul,
Sorry about that! Okay, I'll try for the short version although it still
might take a while! MJO == Madden-Julian Oscillation, sometimes referred
to as the 30-50 day oscillation, or even just the (tropical) intraseasonal
oscillation. It was dicovered by Madden and Juilian in 1971. Basically, it
is the dominant mode of variation in the tropical atmosphere at 30 to 50
day periods, and it affects both the wind fields and convective activity
in the tropics. Its easiest to talk about the convective signal.
Basically, in the active portion of the MJO, all scales of convection are
enhanced - from individual cb, through meso and synoptic scales.
A typical MJO cycle consists of a region of enhanced convection forming in
the central Indian Ocean, which then begins to propagate eastwards. You
can think of this as an envelope inside which the convection on all the
scales is enhanced. The diameter of the envelope is typically about 3 to 5
thousand km. This moves steadily eastwards across the north of Australia
and into the Pacific ocean, generally reaching as far east as the date
line, where usually there is a final flare up of activity before it dies
away. At this time a new MJO begins to form in the Indian Ocean about 30
to 50 days after the previous one. In regions outside of the envelope,
convection is supressed overall (but not altogether of course). To get an
idea of what this thing looks like over the Indonesian region, got to the
current global IR sat image at
www.npmoc.navy.mil/products/jtwc/GMSFull_ir2.jpg
The wind fields are also affected by the MJO - to cut a long story short,
the "rear end" of the active envelope is generally a region where the
conditions for TC formation are particularly favourable.
I should say a couple of other things about it. Generally, the propagation
is along the equator, although it does follow the position of the ITCZ
(monsoon trough) a bit. Its not there all the time either - there are
periods when there is no MJO observed. But the most active time of year
is usually February/March. It has been linked to the active/break cycles
of the Australian monsoon (and the Indian one for that matter), and TC
formation in the Australian region.
There's been stacks of observational work done on it, but we still aren't
sure what causes it. None of the current global models represent it at all
well, and certainly there is no method of forecasting it at present. For
example, if you initialise the MRF model with an active MJO, it doesn't
propagate it at all - it just kills the convection off in about 1 or 2
days. And that's not to put down the MRF - none of the others are any
better. I think the ECMWF keeps the oscillation, but propagates it way too
fast. All the models perform a lot better when the MJO is inactive. It is
quite interesting - some recent studies have shown that the skill of
forecasts both in the tropics *and* the extratropics is reduced during
periods of active MJOs.
Well, I hope that wasn't too long-winded or too brief but just right! But
is pretty interesting stuff don't you think? If you want to know anything
else, please ask!!
Cheers,
Jonty.

Hi all!!!
This is NOT an error in the topic! Yes ladies and gentlemen, you heard
it! A storm was sighted in SE QLD!!! These ellusive creatures that
used to frequently inhabit the hot, moist air of SE QLD during spring
and summer mysteriously dissappeared (they migrated to Victoria, W QLD,
N SA and WA it appears).
Clyve just phoned me to inform me that a Cb had glaciated to his SE
(he's at the Gold Coast at the moment)! He said it went up to 30,000ft,
and picked up a few nice CG's on his lightning tracker aka AM radio. He
has suggested more nice showers and weak storms along the coast today -
which is certainly a good possibility.
If you see a weak, fibrous anvil Brisbanites - don't scoff at it! It
might be your last until we get some well offshore cold-air Cb's in
winter.

Hello all,
It may sound surprising but Italy's tornado occurences are far
from rare. Severe thunderstorms occur approximately the same frequency
as here in Australia. However, the exact figures or estimates of tornado
occurences are unknown. Also, the very first reported tornado occured in
in Roma (Rome) in the middle to latter parts of the 17th century. An
exact date is uknown. The site listed contains a great deal of
information to those who can read Italian. It is probably worth while
attempting to desipher the information.

As I expected, many of the storms shot straight up and then collapsed back on themselves, usually lasting less that an hour and not moving at all. The only interesting thing about them was the way they went up to a fairly low level, then started to spread out into an anvil. The updrafts then broke though the anvil, looking like an overshooting top, and continued upwards, doing the same once again before forming a final anvil. I've got some photos of this somewhere - it's just something I've never seen before.
> The good (severe J) storms, however, moved in from the W or SW. On the day I saw the 2 tornadoes (10th Jan) I wasn't actually looking for storms, a mate and I just went for a run up Towers Hill. From the top, there was a very dark cell to our NW, another to our W and a line of storms continuing as far S as we could see. It all looked very cool. I almost fell of the rock I was sitting on when I looked more closely at the NW cell and saw the tornado. The storm was about 20-25 k's away, so it all looked very small, but the funnel very distinct, all the way from the cloud to ground (or maybe over the horizon?). The wall cloud it was under looked very much like the Sandon tornado (Photo 21, storm spotter handbook) one, except in reverse - I was looking from the opposite direction maybe. The funnel was much more defined than that in the photo, but I could see no dust near the base (over the horizon?) There was very heavy rain right of the wall cloud which slowly moved acro!
ss!

Around 6:45 I looked at this cell again and couldn't believe my eyes - a very dark funnel was coming almost horizontally out of the LHS of the wall cloud and then bending around towards the ground. This tornado was much darker than the previous - almost black and very opaque. It lasted for about 5 minutes until it rose up into the wall cloud. Again, there was heavy rain from this cell just to the right of the wall cloud.

And also at Mt. Crosby as previously observed. But we had 4.5mm and 14.5mm
respectively for the last two days in Feb, so the extra day (29th) actually
gave some respectability to my Feb total of 51.8mm Still below 40% of
average though for Brisbane.
More significant perhaps is the ongoing coolish weather, yes we have been
back up to 28's and 29's, but consistently around 17 overnight, indicatring
lower than normal DP's I think. There is a real autumn feel in the late
afternoons now, and very noticeably in the western suburbs, the white cedars
have already yellowed and quite a few have dropped their leaves already.
Mangoes have failed to produce any fruit this "summer".
Likewise lack of thunderstorms, will none recorded at Mt. Crosby since early
Dec.
Are there any implications I wonder? Intuitively one expects a rather
severe (cold) winter, but then again, perhaps the lack of extremes implies
just the opposite...
John.
>snip
It sure has been dry. I recorded 12.4mm in february, and 27.1mm in January,
for a grand total of 39.5mm to date this year. These are both the lowest I
have ever recorded at this house, but they are also the highest too. I only
moved here six months ago :)
Nevertheless both months are far below normal, which is in the region of
120mm for each month.
There was a bit of rain earlier tonight. Perhaps another fraction of a
millimetre to start March off.

been up here in SE QLD..Believe me Anthony, I AIN'T scoffing at anything
fibrous at this stage. I am heartily looking forward to our winter Cbs.
Maybe we can get some more waterspout pickies.....Here's hoping as

Hi Jane,
I think you better move to NSW of southern QLD then!
Not quite soft - i would probably class that as somewhere between
'coastal Cu' and 'stormy Cu' - but leaing towards the coastal Cu..
BTW, i have updated the Recent Events Picture Gallery with some pictures
taken a week or so ago - yeeeeees i know they're only showers, but at
this stage i will photograph anything with vertical extent, or a precip
curtain..

Oh OK,
I take it all back, there is in fact a glaciated Cb wandering past Sumner
now, but only very weak. Can't help thinking that this glaciation is
happening at a VERY low altitude for this time of year! Just like a winter
scenario. Type of stuff that may produce tiny hail (pea size or less).
Another portent of things to come maybe, following on from my comments re La
Nina Schizo..?

Fair dinkum, SDS has got to some people so bad, now they're hallucinating

But :(, all I can see is a bit of moisture coming in with the dreaded SE's
and nix on the lightning tracker. Gotta be unlikely wouldn't you say.

Not down here in Hobart... The forecast has been changed from 'Thundery
showers' to 'Chance of a shower'... The Lifted index forecast on AVN wasn't
looking too good (+4 or so), so I wasn't very hopeful. I hope you get some
action up there!

Hello all again,
Some more information from the Italian Tornadoes site. The
occurences of Italian tornadoes must be greatly underestimated. Check
out this page:
Click on the first and second links at the bottom of the page to
take you to the next page of tornado occurences of 1999. These pages
give information on every reported tornado occurence of 1999.
They contain 40 tornado occurences averaging around the F1 Fujita
category. Also included are photos and satellite images of the tornadic
event with a description (in Italian though). The highest rating tornado
event was an F2 to F3 occuring on the 16/08/1999 at 21:30. The center of
the event occured near Spilimbergo, Pinzano, Meduno, Vivaro, Tesis, San
Daniele and periferia di Pordenone.
For more historical purposes, the following page includes the
reported tornadic events prior to 1999:
In the first column "Fenomeno" (Phenomenon), the type of
tornadic event is listed. Keep in mind "trombe marine" means
"Waterspout". Tornado is obviously a tornadic event over land 029

Interesting you say that Dean.
When I was in Malta during the northern summer of 1996 around August -
September period, I can tell you there were several times I wished I had a
boat and crossed it towards Italy. There were trough lines and some of the
most unusual/fascinating castellanus I have ever seen even over Malta but
it missed out of course. During the afternoons, you could make out severe
thunderstorms and cumulonimbus lines towards Italy on the horizon. On the
news that evening, you would hear of the deluge etc over Italy. Of course I
could not understand what the reporter was saying!
If you would like to see some of those castellanus, try the following links
http://www.australiansevereweather.simplenet.com/photography/photos/1996/ind
ex05.html from the 8th photo onwards to about half the page.
It would be a storm chaser's paradise but these occurred in the morning and
I was predicting doom and gloom. People laughed at me and they were
right!!! Nothing happened in Malta - it was a couple of hundred km away to
the N. No use telling the others using binoculars where the storms were....
Malta gets its turn during the later months of October and November. They
have had some incredible deluge eg 200mm of rain in 2 hours type rain. They
tie their cars (not worth s...) so they don't float away.
The interesting thing here is that autumn is the time of worst storms and
migration south of the troughs etc..
Anyway, something with a difference.

I have never seens anyone get so excited about some cu.
Gee you lot must be suffering SDS.
Here - well the weather is quite poor with squally rain most of the day after
heavy rain overnight. Seems that Ex-Tc Steve may have some interesting weather
in store for us Thursday night/Friday/Saturday/Sunday going by the BOM forecast
- and theres a chance that he may go TC again once hitting the coast over here.
Not a bad little low pressure system.
Keeping fingers croseed for something - otherwise Matt P will get to see plenty
of heavy rain & maybe some floods.

Hi again,
Well i ended up going out for a bit of a drive - nothing all that
exciting happened, the sky filled up with CRAP not long after i saw the
first anvil - which blocked my view for most of the day.. i took a few
pictures here and there anyway:

Quite tame - but if anyone is interested in seeing what i saw - there

For Seven Hills it's been the driest February since 1968.
Last night I recorded 3.0 mm of rain, almost half the total for
February.
The drought index has reached 155 and is going up about 1mm per day.
The highest it ever reached before being shattered was 185, so at the
risk of using the 'crystal ball' I'd say
there's a good chance we'll get some heavy rain within 2-3 weeks.

Hi Matt
I have been looking with interest at the models too, I am a bit paranoid about those NE/SE winds forecast, sounds like the trough may stall somewhere along the coast, but the BOm are unsure where. What side of the trough you are of course will mean the world of difference. The SE wind and your chances diminish, although I do remember back one March in 1980's we had three storm days in a row with SE winds. It is that unusual I have never forgot it.

Well... we may just break the storm drought here in Sydney this weekend.
(Always have to have hope dann !).. start off the storm season with a bang.. lets go out with a bang :D
Models are forecasting a nice little trough, and the BoM have picked it up as well :D
Shame i have to work on the weekend .. just might have to take a sicky if the LI gets to -6 :) ... now, lets all pray for a nice jet, and lets all pray for Michael T, that he gets a nice storm out of this system :) yeah yeah early days i know.. but its something to look forward to.
OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS
Friday Chance of late shower. N/NE winds.
City: Min: 20 Max: 28
Saturday Few showers, chance storm. NE/SE winds.
City: Min: 20 Max: 28
Sunday Few showers, chance storm. NE/SE winds.
City: Min: 20 Max: 26
Trend for Monday Tuesday and Wednesday:
Few showers. SE/NE winds.

Hello People,
I've been tinkering with observation software and have recently purchased a
Dick Smith WM-918 (also known as WX-200) weather station. As well as recording
the observations from the weather station, the software allows the current
observation to be saved as a .jpg image (with associated thumb nail image), or
as a web page (see links below).
I'm interested in contacting people who have a different type of weather
station so I can see if I can provide support for it.
I'm also interseted in what people would like to see in software for home
weather stations.
Regards,
Mark.

Hi Mark,
I own a Davis Weather Monitor II weatherstation. I use Weatherlink Software
to download and graph the data from it. You can see some of the graphs and
weather summaries I have created with this software at the following links.
