Wild Weather

Is anyone else having or just had some INSANE weather?
I'm in Melbourne and it was hailing for a short period of time but it was the loudest hail I have ever heard! My windows were about to break. As I looked outside I can see my front and backyard which looks like it's been covered in snow.

Anyone else had any extreme weather near them?

.......just saying


Ummm I'd rather have Satan in my house than live in Melbourne. but then again if Satan is in my house I'm probably already in Melbourne



Shall we start comparing Melb vs. Sydney metal bands now or wait until you realise you'd rather live in Melbourne?

I agree.

BB did you take this photo? If so I'm assuming you live around the corner from me as on a clear day you'd almost be able to see my house in this shot. I live at the end of Kurraba Point.

I was up at 5 this morning and saw this in all of it's glory. I looked out over the harbour and couldn't see the city. I could hear a lot of sirens and alarms going off (I assume smoke detectors were set off by the fine particles).

Red smoke + sirens + alarms made me a little uneasy...

Would scare the crap out of me

Yeah. I couldn't even see the other side of the harbour. We could hear the sirens and alarms coming across the water along with the funny smell in the air.

I just said to my GF "so we both think this is a terrorist attack right?". lol
Anybody else watching NBN news?

They have a whole broadcast on the QLD Floods...

Terrible thing thats happened
ITS HORRRRIBLE.

Apparently theres some in NSW. Im hoping it nowhere near wagga, ive got family there.
Yeah it sucks, I'm in Brisbane, we're all waiting for the water to arrive down the river....
watching it while im at work.

Its ****ed. Mother nature is an incredible thing...
Update: Water levels in ipswich are at 18 meters, they were at 22 meters in the 1974 floods... going to get worse too.
Ducati, The water levels are predicted to hit around 22.

Theres a few family friends who live not far from Brisbane, Hope they are ok.

I still can't believe the River broke it's banks


edit: to everyone here who lives in Brisbane, If the worst comes to it, Hope use all get out safe

it's sad and scary for those in queens land :(
Yeah, Mum was talking about going to QLD around the end of the month @_@ She wants to go and see her old friend there, The floods aren't expected to hit there...


edit: heres a link to various traffic cameras that you can look at just to find out how bad some of this can be

www.tmr.qld.gov.au/...

They refresh every 60 seconds btw
I dont get what we're looking at.
They are traffic cameras, All over QLD. I've been going through some at random and you can see a fair bit of water in some.
Yeah noticed it after a while. I think i was expecting more than there actually was on the cameras.
On the select a region click on Darling Downs and go to Toowoomba Range - Saddle (East)

Fair bit of water there...
Yeah we've got all the water from inland rocky and toowoomba heading our way, as well as all the water from the flood gates of wivenhoe dam opening....
