very very wet and windy about 03:30 last night.

Thankfully it did not last long. Did feel a bit like last saturday night, just that it stopped after about 15 mins
Cheers, Craig

Got a bit of rain with a strong wind last night, nothing to get excited about though. Looks to be a big system down around Sydney.

same thing here, strong wind just before it hit and blew rain in sideways when it arrived, but didn't last all that long and quickly disappeared after that.

Bit of rain and wind but not too bad. Lost power for a couple of hours though.
Cheers, John.

As Bevan said, there really wasn't much in it here.
Watched it on the radar for a good hour as it made it's way north east across the Clarence, came & went very quickly.

Did anyone notice that the Mount Stapylton radar image was delayed by almost an hour last night? I saw some lightning outside and had a look, but the storm front looked like it was about an hour away on the radar image. After it started pouring outside I switched to the Marburg radar and it showed the front was on top of us.

The wind blew from the opposite direction compared to the weekend storms.

All the leaning trees are now straight again.
