  • OT - Weather

    Boy... its been a hot and humid November up here in the Top End. :|

    NT weather breaking records

    The city's mean temperature for November was 30.2 degrees celsius, which is hotter than any month since December 1991 and the fourth hottest month on record.

    There were a record number of hot days for November, with nine days of 35 degrees or more. There were only five nights for the month that got below 25 degrees that's also a record number of warm nights".

    Needless to say that aircons are running at full capacity.

    I can handle the hot days... but it's the hot nights that kill me.
    Thankfully I lived in Darwin at an age when it was OK to run around the neighbourhood in a pair of board shorts and not much else

          Summer hasn't really arrived in Perth yet. Got to 30 today but sheesh tomorrow is a paltry 23 degrees with more storms and rain predicted. Damn strange if you ask me. I want Summer to get here! But yeah the hot sticky nights can stay away where you have to sleep with nothing on and the aircon at full tilt to stay sane. Seems everyone has their weird weather story to tell. Lots of farmers got hardly a drop of rain through winter in the wheatbelt, but now that it's harvest time it's bucketing down.... :? :? The world is crazy........

            I recently saw this video of the recent Brisbane Storm on Youtube. Its an amazing bit of amateur footage that really shows just how strong the storm, wind, rain and hail was on that day. Like a mini tornado/cyclone. Well worth it to watch.

            The weather is sure getting crazy more often it seems.

                      When I was a copper in Darwin we drove Kingswood's, Commodores and F100's in the main.

                      None of the above were air-conditioned and all had vinyl seats.

                      No wonder I drank carton after carton of those white cans. :wink:

                        Well, the weather in Darwin has arrived BIG TIME. Cyclone Billy, presently located in the Bonaparte Gulf, is certainly whipping up heaps of water from the ocean and sending it our way in heavy waves of rain. You should see how much water is being dumped here at the moment. Everything is absolutely drenched. Looks like a very wet weekend ahead indeed. At least is is quite cool at the moment. Much prefer this than the hot and humid days of 'build up'.

                            Mother Nature never ceases to amaze me... especially the corrosive power of erosion by water. There has been some pretty amazing photos displayed lately showing how floodwaters have just eaten away whole sections of road, like this one showing the Barkly Highway, which is now completely cut in places:
