-

The temperature in Mount Gambier is only forecasted to hit 36 but our main concern is the dry lightning and gusty northerlies :|
-
Also across Victoria who have today asked to keep the NSW skycrane that they have at the moment, stay cool guys and girls and come home safe.....
-
its not if.....its where and when. :|
-
Big black ugly looking storm clouds rolling in of the coast at Millicent.
-
Cant see anything on the weatherzone radar or lightning tracker as yet firey666 but who knows anything is possible cause forestry did say expect lightning between 9 am and 12 pm
-
I think you wil find that we have alreday had some robert i the wee small hours and looks like more brewing....
-
Yeah there was some lightning activity this morning mostly sheet lightning near Kalangadoo from what i could see Bill not to sure about cloud to ground lightning cause it would have been visible :|
Any idea of what time the new stuff will hit Bill or is it a wait and see thing cause all that main lightning has moved on down towards tassie im unable to see anything on the lightning tracker forming in our general area
-
lightning is nearly impossible to predict...id be looking on and behind the wind change if were goin get any at all...
-
True mac13 even though theres nothing on the weatherzone lightning tracker it still looks pretty stormy outside and once the wind change comes in we'll probably see lightning come out of nowhere
-
thats usually how it happens :wink:

Sitting back guzzling rum at about 0200 hrs this morning in the doo there was a fair bit of light work to the south east of town. I suspect that could of been the cause of the fire on the border this morning. All quiet now I say its time to get some more rum and worry about it when it happens
-
Get the rum, hopefully leave others to worry about the fires..
