It's good to see the old weather patterns for this time of year comming back.
It's like a bad bushfire.....people forget how it is supposed to be after a few years of not having them.
It's just normal (
well used to be) for Northern NSW /SE QLD
Cheers

Not wanting to rain on your parade (pardon the pun) but did you realise you can view the BOM radar info and all other forecasts and current conditions on ExplorOz? Even without leaving the
Forum - from the index just hover over the Weather Forecasts button and select your state and presto. Anyway, just thought I'd mention that since you started this post.
BTW - beautiful sunny day, not a single cloud and 33 degrees here in
Perth. Perfect weather. Nice afternoon seabreeze, all the sailboards and kite surfers are out ripping up the scene :-) Love it!

Hi Michelle,
If you set up your sailboard or kite surfer on the North Coast ATM, you'd end up in NZ.
Might give it a miss, for today anyway. :)

Mark,
You're copping it mate!
The best storm I reckon I ever saw was in
Grafton one Jacaranda Thursday!
The bloody rain was horizontal!

We got one this arfternoon I heard it coming from
Newcastle I raced out and put cars away shut windows covered a car I couldnt move felt relieved and pleased and then realised a truck had dropped off a 4300 Subaru gen set weighing 76 KG.
Bloody fun putting one on an 8inch trolley and pushing it backwards for 20M to get it away I couldnt lift it back with the trolley to wheel it.
Then down came the hail and the only thing out in it was me but that doesnt matter my heads like a golf ball surface anyway from sun spot removals.

Hi Ian,
Excuse my laughter, it would have been bloody funny watching you drag a genny that out weighs you with hail bouncing off your bald head!
