Is there a phenomenon re storms and port phillip bay

I really don't know anything about weather, I only pop in here occasionally to see whether you all think a storm or snow is coming etc. So my question is going to come across as silly and weird. In this household we called port phillip bay the 'storm Bermuda triangle' because it seems that while wat...

Re: Victoria: Low Pressure Trough 9th - 10th Dec

OK a little off topic but kind of weather related. At around 1am a tanker exploded in rowville sending a fireball 150 metres down the road and setting 3 cars alight. They are saying the cause is still unknown. This is a little far fetched but wasn't that around the same time the storm was passing ov...

Well that wasn't a bad light show. There is a lunar eclipse going on right now isn't there? Well I don't think we'll be seeing that.

Springvale only caught the edge of that one and it was impressive enough, marble sized hail. Made my husband run out and cover my car with an old blanket hehehe. Sirens and car alarms going off around us. I suggest any pakenham people go put your cars under cover now just in case.

Re: VIC Fronts with rain & storms then showers: 26/9/-01/10

Awesome site tonycynic, thanks. But still not sure what kind of plane it was, there was a boeing 737 coming from NZ that did a loop under berwick but that wouldn't have put him over springvale. Oh well my husband will just think I've gone crazy......well crazier LOL

Re: QLD: TC Yasi - 30/11/1 - ???

Lily they are in a suburb called brinsmead, It is inland a bit (I think about a 7 minute drive west of the CBD), they should be ok. Mum surprisingly didn't sound too stressed about the whole event at all, most of the conversation was her complaining that my dad was being a bossy pain in the arse LOL

Well my parents live in a winnebago in Cairns, last spoke to mum at 11am and her mobile was breaking up so I only heard half of what she said, a dozen of the caravan park residents have bunkered down in the park owners house, so I probably wont know how they are until tomorrow afternoon......scary s...

Mozzie's dont get me started on mozzies!!! Was at the Sale market on Sunday (got there about 6:30am) and I have never met such huge and aggressive mozzies in my life, I kid you not I was bitten through my jeans and under my hair (I was scratching my scalp so much people probably thought I had nits)....
