Hi all,
As usual, Sydney took most of the lime-light from Wollongong this arvo. We
had spectacular views of the underside of one or two of the anvils here -
some brilliant Mammatus, shame I don't have a camera (did you get any shots
Michael T?).
I went out to Fairy Medow beach at around 1830 and got a pretty good light
show but we only had a small cell with a few rumbles move through during the
afternoon as far as actual storms go.
Sorry, this was pretty hasty.
Andrew.

Hey Jimmy, Everyone..
The passage of a shortwave trough over parts of southern and central NSW
sat/sun should make things interesting ahead of the trough..
The models have had that look to them or Eastern Australia for days..
and it looks like something could come out of it.. all models are
dragging cold air up over QLD in the upper levels for the entire outlook
period.. and some models are starting to deepen a trough off the QLD
coast.. all of varying degrees and of position.. but it will be
interesting to see what happens..
I have my eye on Saturday for parts of SE QLD.. although the steering
winds are terrible (S and SE'rly), and the surface trough is too far
away for us to get weather from it.. with the cold air in the upper
levels, and NE winds (inland.. SE/NE on the coast).. i think there could
be some showers/storms floating around over inland parts on Saturday
afternoon.. nothing lik NSW will get unfortunately..

After the rains of late August, the fact that southern Victoria and
eastern Tasmania somehow contrived to get very little rain out of
last year's low means that both Melbourne and Hobart are looking
at low rainfall totals for various periods, especially as little or
no rain is expected over the remainder of the month.
Melbourne is sitting on 13.8 mm for September. This would be the
second-lowest September total on record and the lowest since 1907.
Hobart's September rainfall so far (18mm) is well clear of its record
of 10.0, but they are looking at two longer-term rainfall deficits.
The rainfall since 1 May is 112mm, and since 1 April 149mm. These are
both well below the relevant records for the 5 months May-September
(142.3mm, 1951) and the 6 months April-September (167.3mm, 1940).
Hobart's lowest rainfall for any 6-month period is 80.5mm for January-
June 1967.

Hi all,
After lurking for a few weeks on the list (and having browsed through a few
of the list archives for a few months), I thought I'd better introduce
myself. :)
Anyhow, my name is Malcolm Ninnes and I live at Wentworthville, in the
Western Sydney area. I'm 23 years old, and used to live in sunny QLD until
1997, when I moved down here and started doing unix sysadmin work for a
large retail company. (wonder who?)
Of particular interest to me is the formation of tornadoes, and also
upper-level winds and how shear affects thunderstorm development. I guess
my interest started just prior to 1992, which, incidentally, was when an F3
tornado 'breezed' past my house in Maryborough, November (1992). Scary
stuff!
Since then I have chased to a very small extent to further study
thunderstorm development, but have lacked the communication with others, and
the knowledge that goes along with it ; hence joining this list (and most
likely ASWA). I figured that I might as well use my work email address, as
that's where I'll be most of the time, waiting for storms to develop (and
itching to get out the door and in my car at 5pm!)
Can't wait for the next ASWA meeting to put some faces/voices to the names
that I have been reading about for so long on the mailing list.
I've gotta say also that the storms moving over the sydney metro area last
night were superb - the feeling of 'summer storm season' was definitely
alive and well last night :) I left the office here in Strathfield around
5.30pm just in time to see a weird roll cloud coming in, just in front of
huge towers filled with lightning in front of a multicoloured sunset. It was
even nicer heading eastbound on Parramatta road, loading up realtime radar
loops on the laptop (never done that before!) then glancing periodically out
the back window of the car and
noticing a couple of large cells in tow :) Needless to say, I wasn't
driving.
Pea sized hailstones in Crows Nest around 8pm though, which left me
wondering how the rest of Sydney was faring.
Anyhow that's about it from me for now....

Reply-To: aussie-weather at world.std.com
At 5.00pm some heavy showers (but NOT storms) are crossing
the Canberra suburbs.
Almost predictably, the showers became visible through the window
just after 3.00pm and just before the BoM changed the forecast
for this evening to "fine" after having predicted showers for
today for the last two days. I think their job is made more
difficult by the Wagga radar going off-line at 3.00pm which is
often the time that cumuliform precipitation starts to develop.
The other interesting feature of these showers is the very
unfavourable upper air sounding at Wagga this morning with the
air becoming very dry not much above 1000m. The strong mid-level
westerly winds brought in the moisture we are now seeing - the
mid atmosphere sounding from Adelaide shows a much more moist
profile.
Tomorrow/Saturday promises to be more interesting.
Patrick

Hi Anthony and all,
Got home this evening and opened the local paper to discover a story on Anthony
Cornelius and the Australian Severe Weather Association!
If you haven't yet seen it, it's on page 6 of the Northern News (dated Thu 23
Sep). Perhaps on a different page for the paper in your area?
Not only good advice, but good exposure for ASWA - very positive article,
Anthony - well done!
Cheers!
Marty.

Hey John, Everyone..
I saved radar for Mathew and Dann while they were out chasing.. and i
compiled this loop of the storms..
http://www.bsch.simplenet.com/ben/sydney/eventloop.gif
The movement of the storm on the northern edge of the line was
interesting..
If you cut back that directory to
http://www.bsch.simplenet.com/ben/sydney/
You will find all the stuff i saved..
