Droughtbreaker, how long do the models go in terms of days as most seem to only go to 7 days

Had a small storm down here last night, was very refreshing to hear the sound of the rain on the roof (and trust me, its sorely needed, can't believe how brown its looking out there) but could've done without the thunder and lightning. Hopefully this weather pattern will end soon, really want to see...

The very long rainband is starting to come my way, some thunder and lightning about but not a lot in it ATM, some of it is starting to lose its bite.

Very calm down my end with the 2nd main line out at sea and faint echoes of thunder can be heard inland, going to be an interesting night but my gut feeling is that most of it will stay out to sea.

The weirdest thing happened, the storm cell came through and the heavy stuff went right around me and the cell has now come and gone with a strong westerly wind, unbelievable.

Mt. Gambier copped it though with 12mm of Rain.

Been a lovely day here, clear blue skies and a southerly breeze, about 20 degrees the max, any chance of a storm down my end this evening and overnight?

It is absolutely bucketing down here, at least 20-25mms so far with 30-40km/h winds.

Why us, Have got a small cell going every which way but loose and despite a STW for down here, it's hardly that at all, just a bit of rain and thunder.

Oh well, it had to be my turn someday.

Wind has shifted SE according to the BOM, with a storm coming, will that help or hinder the Storm?

Karl, will Portland see much in the way of Storms and Rainfall

Will Portland receive much rain overnight and tomorrow? I would think there's a chance of some showers tomorrow, but the change has already been through your area. so the warmer, tropical air has passed and the rain with it. Thanks for that, Just thought I'd ask since you're all online. As for the ...

Will Portland receive much rain overnight and tomorrow?

Will my area be okay tomorrow, cause according to the BOM weather observations I have a southerly breeze and it's very cloudy down here

How should my end do Karl, much rain forecast or will it be mainly in the north and east?

Will that red blob hit my end?

72mms so far and a Northerly wind, yuck will this SW change ever come?

They aren't the only ones, I've had near 60mm alone from all this rain, it hasn't stopped since about 2pm this arvo.

Rain, rain and more rain, 20 odd mm's so far.

How much rain should I get tomorrow and will it cause any flooding?

No thanks, I'll keep my lot.

But still, I'm dreading tomorrow, high winds and heavy rain = disaster
