Re: Low pressure sequence April 10 - 14
I sense I will need to go visit all the farmers tomorrow if the damage is as bad as the wind has been up there. (its my job to help ensure they are all sorted)

Re: Low pressure sequence April 10 - 14

Saw a power flash from here looking west. Strong gusts here but nothing too rare yet.
