Nice black clouds & a bit of a light show down Cleveland way from here, but it missed us, just the lightest of rain now.

Getting closer ......seems to be heading in from the Ipswich direction. We can see it getting nearer and nearer to the city from our house and we can actually hear the thunder now. Still we could really do with the rain right now. Everything in the garden is looking really sorry for itself, if it hasn't already died.

Next update due shortly (11.30) but we can hear it now and see flashing although map still has it missing us, think the little where the storm is map is very good of the Aussies to provide...shame they couldn't do the same with police speed cameras.
Just hope the siren things never go off we would s**t ourselves... :scared: :scared: :scared: apparantly there is a general get the **** out of there one and a different cyclone one all of which would come over your radio, TV etc. if ever set off.

Nasty lightning & thunder & some steady rain here now - but hopefully nothing bad in it, just seems to be passing over now.
