Now is its own thread.

Don't get too blown away in here.

Big time.

Rain.
Lightning. (Shutter speed.)
Wind.
Warmth.
Darkened clouds.

Welcome to Melbourne.

We haven't had the dust storms though.

Subbed.

Now it has it's own thread hopefully it might go away and leave us alone for a while

(Less windy here in Melbourne today, at least where I am).

All calm now. Rebuilt my mini greenhouse that was trashed. Planted some spring season seedlings.

My son is in the SES and said he was surprised they didn't get any call outs due to fallen branches. I think a big storm a couple of months ago already broke most trees that had weaknesses.

Thought this would be a Cat Stevens thread.

I thought Friday morning was bad but it was crazy driving home at 4 this morning , worse I've ever seen. A few trees completely blocking the road and was driving over branches and stuff for most of the way.

It's a wild world.

It's been relentless again today.

We had a mad hailstorm about 2pm. It's calmed down in Geelong now and the forecast says it might be done with.

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

And it's gonna be 24 on Wednesday. Weird, weird weather.

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Yep, the wind was not only strong but quite cold this afternoon here in Melbourne and we had a bot of rain too.

On the feedrun this morning we had trees down all over the place, fences broken (luckily no horses got out), big branches everywhere, I even watched one of the chickens get blown against the fence when I let them out and I was texting the maintenance guy so much he asked me to do the rest of the run with my eyes closed

Walked into the Thai restaurant for lunch and it was ok, walked out and it was ****ing hailing, brutal weather today. Traffic was awesome coming into the city today, everyone stayed home because of the weather I think.

Is the restaurant run by a person of caucasian appearance betrothed to a thai national?

Nah they were all Asian. I want everyone working at an Asian restaurant to be of Asian appearance to be honest, bonus points if all of the customers are too #notracist

Great, so I see this thread on the first day where it hasn't hit "gale force" in about two weeks.
Nothing like Tassie has had though. Like a not very tropical monsoon hit.

Speaking to some people overseas it seems they put up with this kind of stuff every month.

I guess it becomes apart of life and you learn to life with it.

It's windy right now, true story!

Spot on mate.

I think that’s the only option really. Live with it or move away

If the weather apps are correct then it's going to peak around 9 and 10 this morning!
