I am sorry for the upheaval you are having, I had no idea you wanted to be back in the Uk, is the Aussie life not living up to your expectations?

Looong story, basically got homesick after about 2 months (very unexpectedly), had a lot of health problems and never really settled. Married to an Aussie though who just wouldn't survive back home, so I'm still here

Looks like the one coming now may just slip to the left of us and luckily the bad ones on Sunday went either side of us.

Hi, hows things with you?

Normally spread over a week or so and in 2 years I've never seen 'this is a dangerous Thunderstorm' tagged on to the map.

Think we must have to worry when it says 'Oh! Shit'.

Thought today was a Thunder free day and it was back tomorrow. 6:30 am and already some red yellow and blue building above Beaudesert, doesn't bode will if it's here already.

I can confirm the cloud is up there, right now, it's been piddling down this morning already, big rumbles of thunder ... odd time for it to build but any rain welcome around here
