I thought I would let you know. Great huge blue flashes not seen for ages. Maybe our 'drought' is coming to an end. Heavy rain forecasted for the Alps for the next couple of days followed by that cold snap that you Aussies should be getting now. Then back to boring anticyclonic weather ???!?!?! Hope not.

My name is Matthew Bonser and I live in the southern suburbs of Adelaide, I am very interested in the weather, especially anything severe. I have a fairly limited technical knowledge but with I am slowly increasing that, especially with the wealth of information that is availabe through this email list and on the web. I currently work as a cameraman for a television station which means I often get to see the aftermath and damage that is caused by the weather, I am also a member of the Country Fire Service which means we are normally busy after a decent storm ( spent 3 hrs clearing trees last thursday night after the front came through). Anyway enough about me, the main reason I wanted to post a message was to tell everyone about the great dumping of hail we received here today. It lasted for about 15 minutes and although only pea size, it managed to turn everything white and covered the road with ice. Luckily I was able to get some vision of it happening and some of you in SA might have seen it on the news tonight. The hail seemed very localised as when I travelled about a kilometre up the road there was no sign of any, I also didn't hear any other reports of hail to the extent that we had it. I guess there could have been though as the bureau was forecasting snow on the ranges last night. Oh well I think I have gone on long enough, I just love this weather - bring on more I say.

Hi all, Well, being the freelance idiot that I am I decided to break my week at uni in Wollongong and head for the hills (aka parent's place). Only showers of snow here in Taralga so far, with plenty of clear sky in between. I'm hoping a combination of the imending cold pool and more of a south-westerly element will make things a little more exciting later tonight and tomorrow. At the moment we have a dusting of snow on the ground, very light westerly wind and 0.7 degrees C.

(I would like to see a 1-2 degree reduction in temperature soon...please!!!). The AVN model suggests the coldest air will pass over Canberra in the next 12 hours with a peak in intensity around 6-8am - quite good timing at least for cold temps - hope there is enough instability to provide precipitation as well.
