Gold Coast getting hammered at the moment. I can only see a wall of white from my balcony.

Yep, lots of smallish but heavy cells all over SEQ and Northern NSW.

Sunny and humid my part of the woods right now. But think we might be in for a show a little later. Already had a brief power outrage a few hours ago (maybe 2 mins duration), so network re-routing resolved the outage.

The coasts about to be hammered again.

Going to be a long night at BNE airport. In the QF pub if anyone needs guesting and will post in relevant thread too.

 

[NM]

Lots of rumbling outside now.

Just announced airport closed until further notice

Just announced airport closed until further notice

Not surprised - there is a lot of lightning around and will be for a while. And will be similar case for Gold and Sunshine coast airports. Brisbane West airport (Wellcamp) is probably clear now

A demonstration of a typical storm pattern around Caloundra last night. The often go south and north of us. I have never seen it quite like this before though.


Today is the opposite. Basically the area around Caloundra is the only place on the East coast of Australia getting heavy rain.
