Looks good up north again for Thunderstorms ohh well hope you guys get some good pics especailly Spwill you get some great ones see if you can get some lightning too .
Actually to recall its not really that bad in thunder terms here because last year we didnt get our first thunder day until 15th November and that was an electrical storm that one with not much rain and no hail. Although having saying that we have had Thunder earlier like in September 2003 as Aaron will recall and i Believe its on NZTS site quite a good one too.
I was reading the MS calendar today and on the 23rd of November 1992 a big thunderstorm hit Roxborugh in Otago with a record rainfall of 80mm in under an hour .
But hey the more thunder in NZ the better but the more here the even Merrier aye JOHN? .
Cheers

looks like we are in for an overcast day with the odd shower around. there is plenty of low level instability there. I'm not expecting any thunderstorm activity today, upper air doesn't look cold enough to me and surface dewpoints of 12C don't favour deep convection unless there is particularly cold air aloft, which there isn't.Overcaste Some towering Cu about.
May get some sunshine this afternoon, hope so.

We got a very useful 11.5mm during the late afternoon, hopefully the rainwater tanks will keep topped up as we go into summer.
Anyone seen the Darwin tracker tonight? http://www.northauschasers.com/Stormvue/StormVue.html
Currently it is showing 121 strikes per minute I'll really have to organise a trip there next year.
Cheers,
G
