Well that totally missed us. Few drops of rain barely enough to wet the road. Looks like Caloundra got some decent hail according to local paper's website. Thought our storm season here might have kicked off with a bang looking at the radar earlier.

Thanks Crikey. Just a few drops here. Very dry storm around this area with the atmospheric conditions just not having enough moisture.

You did OK with a couple mm’s Pabloaka. Topography probably had a bit to did with where you are there.
Looking forward to the photo of the Kookaburra. BigGrin Day lightning is hard to capture at times. Sometimes it takes a few hundred shots. If it was like the coast storm and you have hundreds of strikes you have a greater chance. Some storms as we know will throw out thousands and you just point and shoot. Then pick your best shots.

The Sunshine Coast did nicely with the storm structure. Very nice shots Sharjay. A solid shelf cloud there.
Looking at WZ storm tracker and it was a very lightning active system.

That's great to hear Pharbelle! It has been a while since we have had the smell of rain, so it makes a nice change.

(No doubt that by the end of January we may be sick of the rain.)

Thanks 'delboy' for chasing up the picture of the hail.I am glad we didn't get that here. The damage is always expensive and an inconvenience.

Today we are still in the stalled tropical dip in isobars. However today is different because we have no precip' signal forecast.

I had a quick look in to this . Found that the windstreams are not really forming a trough pattern. There is some divergence embedded in wind streams over the trough (H)and so the air subsides instead of rises.


Tomorrow , Monday a weak precip' signal right up the east coast from sth NSW to sunshine coast.
Would be a good idea to check storm potential along this trough

Not sure I get what you mean? The coastal waters forecasts issued early this morning had S to SE winds shifting NE in the late morning and early afternoon... which is exactly what's happened if you look at the obs for various places.

e.g. "Gold Coast waters forecast: South to southeasterly 15 to 20 knots, reaching up to 25 knots offshore south of Point Lookout early in the morning. Winds shifting north to northeasterly 10 to 15 knots in the afternoon."

vs GC seaway obs: http://www.bom.gov.au/pr...801/IDQ60801.94580.shtml

The wind change did come through which can be seen on the Bureau observations, with the BoM MSLP Analysis chart showing the trough moving northwards, with little weather with the change. As forecast winds are now starting to tend NE along the coast as it warms up and though is still S to SE along much of the coast.

Yes . I do agree Tsunami. I believe it was an interesting day on the forum and so much like what it used to be like.Thanks to Paul for making this possible.

I will say though,The BOM forecast for widespread storm across the region did very well. There was a corridor of less if l remember near Brisbane but that may have been asaociated with the mid level inversion the soundings were showing in that region.

I was however disappointed with ACC r which totally missed the southern activity. I suspect ACCESS r has a lifted index component but not a CAPE component in its forecasting algorithm.It doesn't see storm potential l believe.
Lets see how the new updated version pans out in the future.
