I never cease to wonder that when it comes down to it on a f...

I'm in Kiama, NSW. No rain, just smoke. Here's a video found on twitter the other nite. Shud be able to watch without signing in. Think I'd rather go thru a cyclone, or anything else, than this. And the fire fighters keep doing it. https://twitter.com/9NewsMelb/status/1222764272414949376?s=09 Your ...

If you know very well where you are located on Bom's rain radar map which has a graduated coloured strip underneath, and a large mass with a large area of red and yellow passes right over you and no rain falls, what exactly do those red and yellows mean.
