It passed over us from west to east - heaps of heavy rain, lightning and thunder. Had some close hits - enough to make my ADSL modem drop offline...then thought it would be a good idea to unplug everything.C-Nimbus wrote:that a nice pic by the way GraemeWi.
Does anyone know which way this is heading?
4 pm radar suggests Kaipara is getting the most action.
Is it moving NW or NE?
edit - just read the rain gauge, 9mm from the storm.
Good productive afternoon - nice storm, rain to fill the cracks in the garden, and I stood in a nest of hens eggs while I was on top of the hill taking pictures - bonus 6 eggs - hope there are no chicks inside or that will ruin my scrambled eggs tomorrow morning
I guess my decision to call of my trip to Darwin has paid off (I'd be threre right now if I could have got some more time off work)
Cheers,
G

ha ha ha, scrambled eggs classic!
heres the 4:15 NOAA sat pic. All it really shows is possible embedding of TS along an active front.
