If I get anything more definite than that overnight I'll post it here

Looked fairly thick in central NSW on the news earlier, only heard that it was heading for the coast, no more details than that.

There's a small amount visible on the Satellite map, but only if you know its there. Much less distinctive than last time.

Yeah, it's back again, but as you said, not a patch on Wednesday. Just enough to cover everything I hosed down with dust again.

Its much milder than Wednesday but from where we are there is a light red tinged haze above us.OH just landed in Syd from Bangkok so Kingsford Smith is functioning as normal.I was worried that if the storm was like Wednesdays he would not be able to land.

I am told it was very dusty at 6.30am but not red; at 6.30am I was still snoring.

Very windy down near the harbour now, was possibly a bumpy landing for Mr Wilgar.

Supposed to be moving over Queensland during the evning. There was definitely a dust cloud visible over the city when I came into work at 6ish. There is a cold front moving across Queensland behind the dust, which could help the fire situation, depending on the wind strength. At around 5pm the trough was in a line from Georgetown - Emerald - Warwick Visibility was repoted to be between 100 and 300 metres at the front of the cloud, but we have had reports of it dropping to 100 metres near Roma, and at one point even down to 40.
The last estimates I was given were Brisbane at around 2000-2100hrs, which is about now, (but I'm stuck in a dark office and can't see a lot!) and then the Ingham further north by about 3am - moving about 40kph apparently.

There was a definite haze over the NSW/QLD border this morning and then driving along the coast at about 9 ish, all lights further along were missing - too much dust, couldn't see Burleigh northwards. Bit of a worry because you couldn't see the red flight warning light on top of Q1, not that I needed to but I guess pilots use it when coming in to Coolie

Just imagine the condition of the air filters of the vehicles that were driving on Wednesday....
Even had mum ring and suggest that I change mine...told her that the car never moved and was covered all day.
