Well as you probably know Adelaide is by far the driest capital in Australia and South Australia the driest state so that results in some pretty boring weather and some unbelievable misses as well :-( However that does mean that when a storm finally makes it here it is unbelievably exciting. Tarree is not only a nice scenic spot but it has that lovely moist Pacific Ocean to feed lots of moisture onto you to create those storms. Actually the whole of the East Coast of Australia is lucky with that Pacific Ocean. The best we can do here is just read and imagine what it would be like. The 4 day forecast here is not exciting but not too bad. Saturday Fine and hot 28C, Sunday Afternoon showers 22C, Monday Cool a few showers 17C and Tuesday a shower ot two and 18C. No mention of storms. This month hasn't been too bad with 61.2mm falling and an average of 51mm for the month.

Disappointed today, I really though we would have had an outside chance, there must have been a very weak ( I mean weak ) surface trough yesterday, even the sea breeze today was light, unlike yesterdays typical 20 knots NE sea breeze. There was some Cu on the far SW horizon that showed some vertical growth around 2pm. ( I was at Mittagong ), but nothing came of it.

Some rain developing during Sunday. NE to N'ly winds, freshening during Sunday.Brisbane Airport Min 17 Max 26 UV Index - 10 (extreme)Outlook Monday - Becoming fine. Max 29 Tuesday - Afternoon storms. Max 31 Wednesday - Shower or two. Max 25 The shrs & t'storms over the inland tonight (though not in SEQ because there's no lightning right now) should flatten out and move over us as rain during tomorrow helped about by an upper trough. I'll still be looking for storm dev't tomorrow especially as cu congestus was around until the mid afternoon when high level cloud moved through. But I look to Tuesday - it might be a day. The total totals are looking pretty good but it's not always good to rely on them. But...there's a HUGE section of SW Qld and NW NSW that are forecast on Monday to get severe storms - just hope the moisture's not too high up top. I'll probably email same time tomorrow about our chances. See ya...good luck to everyone who may be chasing tomorrow.
