LOL Jake, there's not much to read! I am always busy and only get by sometimes every couple of days or so, usually because I am too lazy to be technichal with any spare time I have to dump obs. Should stop being lazy! :grin: Currently working on WX server of sorts because the Xmas elves were nice and sent me a Boltek Storm Tracker(Ka-ching!) I may include the WX station but I am still in "development" stages...lol!

Cyclone preparredness for me is going to the shop for two cartons of durries, a bottle of rum and filling the Jerry's for the Genie...sorted!Usually do that about a day before they(BOM) issue the first warning, gets hectic after that happens in NQ!!!
I should be serious though, I am always prepared and I do a general check at the start of the season on the kit and then don't worry about it the rest of the season...short of two cartons of durries ect! :grin:

Temp min/max. 25.2C-2138/29.2C–1320. DP min/max. 22.7C-2055/25.8C-1146. Wind max gust 33.1Km/h at 0548. 24 hour rain-90.5mm.

The extra 90.5mm brings the 48hr total for this event up to 286.6mm, ex-ossie passed us today without much of a show however there are some reports and evidence that Hay point near Mackay experienced a tornado this moring embedded in one of the feeder bands! Atleast this event broke the boredom for awhile...I am bored again! :D

Hey all, been trying a new thing with the weather station and using a "server" to upload it automatically. Not much success, it tends to delete histories instead of uploading it. Gonna go with cumulus I guess. Have kept up rainfall records from the manual, not much to speak of other than some good storms the other day(Friday).

24 hour rainfall to 2100(AEST)- 02/02/13. 1mm.

Just doing rainfall atm, ob's will be back later.

hopefully the rain is on it's way too, strong widescale indications but shortwaves will be what puts numbers on the board... or in Townsvilles case, usually kills all hope! LOL!
