A portugese quarter pterodactyl and chips would be epic.

Plenty spare for the seagulls to steal.
Probably a bit âgameyâ
Ex TC Ellie has been quite an interesting bit of weather.
Itâs been hanging around in some form since around the 20th of December. It finally formed into a cyclone and crossed the coast on 23 December and weakened back into a low. It headed almost to the centre of the NT but instead of being picked up by a front and dragged over to the East Coast it has gradually moved NW and is likely to reform into a TC today or tomorrow when it gets back over the sea off the Kimberley coast. After that itâs going to come back across land, weaken, and more than likely get picked up by a front and dragged East by the end of the week.
While it has dumped a whole lot of rain it hasnât been destructive, just hung around.
I canât think of another single weather system that has lasted so long. By the time it is on itâs way to NZ it wouldâve been active over Australia for 3 weeks.
Lucky I didnât end up driving to Darwin via AliceâŠ

Which way did you go?

Ha!
Weâre going up to Kingscliff and itâs meant to rain all week
There may be a low coming down the coast next week so it might be a bit more than just rain.
Thatâs a cute way of saying âmini tropical cycloneâ
Somebody in the office made a joke about putting windshield wipers on the office windows as itâs been raining sideways all day, and we canât see outside
Sometimes we get lucky and theyâre actual cyclonesâŠ
Doesnât look like it will happen now though, itâs been picked up by the front and taken towards Norfolk Island & NZ.
I just got back from Fiji and the last two days there was exactly like today here, except ten degrees colder.
Well thats what you get for trying to do something nice.

It was my first day back at work today so, all those of you who are still on holiday can thank me for todayâs weather later.

So Sydney apparently hasnât had a day above 30C in 323 days and itâs been over 12 months since we went above 32C
When they say that do they mean the whole Sydney metropolitan area, or just Sydney as in the City.
It got out to 32 degrees out near Campbelltown just the other day.

Observation noted.
Some bloody heavy rain this afternoon. Started as soon as I pulled out for the drive home and didnât end until I hit the edge of the city. Low points on every road I traveled starting to flood. Hopefully thatâs eased a bit.
