Re: Southern QLD/ Wide Bay & North NSW day to day weather 2019

Tropicaltidbits.com still shows a significant upper level trough and cut off low passing just to our south around August 5-8th. I hope the downgrades don’t continue. At least it’s a bit of a change from the zonal flow and ridging we have been experiencing. We are down to 90 litres water usage per p...

Re: Increasing heat, humidity and storms - Nov 3 - 7

Johno the IOD went negative in Oct 2010 just before the floods.And yes i know a strong La Nina also had a big influence on the situation.So i do believe the neg IOD did play a bigger role than what was thought.

Already had 2 sharp short showers this morning and now the sun is making an appearance which bodes well for some stormy stuff later.

Re: Low Pressure Trough - October 5-8 2012

Looking OK for you Athern, I would think 10-20mm is a good bet for the weekend. Rainy Saturday then a morning frost and fine Sunday. Can't complain about that! Next week looking hot ahead of the front, with a large thermal gradient likely to setup over the state and a chance of seeing 35C weather a...

Re: AWF Climate Outlook - Spring 2012

Looking at the satellite pics over the last few days there is a lot of moisture starting to stream in from the warming Indian Ocean.This bodes well for the rest of spring and summer for some good rain.IMO flooding could become an issue later in the year especially if La Nina takes a good hold.
