Just had a call from my dad who works at the airport and there's a massive TS coming he said.
Apparently there's lots of turrbulance among planes.
I could see the TS before the black line out there and now there's some nice dark CB's out there hmm what will this TS bring.
Cheers ohh yeah and saferics are picking up strikes as well.

Shower passed now had some sporadic drops of rain with some hail just on the convergence edge.
Also had the most incredable thunder rumble out to sea wich boomed like a cannon underground didn't see any lightning but wen the big saferics were on the radio thats when I checked it out and heard the boom of thunder.
Storms Still developing now heading up towards Kaikoura now there's another TS coming your way Tony.
Be Intersting to see what happens this afternoon as southerly is now back to NE and its now 18dg which is reasonabally warm still CB's to the SW last time I looked.

Had a shower out at Burwood where I was working, but not heavy. But I could see cbs to the north and west, and the sun is shining, so warming the ground. If we get another thunderstorm in Chch today, it would be 3 days in a row. I can recall 2 days in a row with t'storms, but not 3. (I've been here 10 years)

Ohh well no TS in the end but really Canty has had it pretty good with TS latly so I can't complain really. Atleast I did get some hail and of course usual rain today so yeah.
Even though From the Tuesdays TS yesterdays TS and todays didn't hit me atleast I heard Thunder three days in a row which is great but that will be broken tomora with cruddy old showers and yeah SW winds
.
Ohh well here's what I managed to get today some pics of the TS as they went through after midday.
Cheers
