Becoming hot ahead of a change with possible rain and storms: February 10-14

Post by James »

IMO i think people have moved to other platforms because this page had too many rules which killed the majority of the interesting discussions about weather. I pointed that out a while back, and here we are...

There is also little to be had in the way of learning like in the old days where if you did not get a storm and moaned and asked why, it would be discussed why it didn't happen.

There is little left to do but report, but few people seem to see it.

Also, half the time a new thread has been started and nobody posts in the old thread that this ones finished, so i keep refreshing the page and wondering where everyone is, then go back to the main page and realise a new threads been going for ages...

case in point, we are talking in an out of date thread...

You only need to check the main page to see if a new thread has been started. Surprisingly none yet considering this one is now 4 days out of date.

Regardless, I usually check in here whenever there's a severe event and usually there's much more interest than there has been for this one, which was huge!

Struggling a bit to find a thread worthy sequence in the progs. Just boring warm to hot weather. Guess that’s what it is.

Getting seriously dry here now. Most of VIC is better, though the west is dry.
