It has been an interesting weather day today!. Have also been keeping an eye on it all day. Looks like the cows(not mine) are being fed Cotton Seed by the looks of the white patches on the ground. It is looking pretty dire out this way but it is far worse out to the west on the plains in places like Narrabri & Moree, thats where a lot of the dust that hit us originated. I recorded a gust of 65 kph at 12:45 today, but that was in town. Mt Borah, 40 km to the south recorded a gust of 95 kmh. Moree, Narrabri & Gunnedah had gusts around the 80 kph mark. Looks like it will be a day spent dusting tomorrow! |

Current fires NSW 9th Sept 2019
https://www.rfs.nsw.gov....nformation/fires-near-me TENTERFIEL Big one bush fire is burning in the Long Gully Road, Drake area. The fire has burnt more than 32,800 hectares and is out of control.
Current Situation The fire is burning in bushland south of the Bruxner Highway and south of Drake and Tabulam, to the west of the Clarence River, in the Girard State Forest. The fire is burning in a north easterly direction along Long Gully Road and Plains Station Road, towards the Bruxner Highway and the villages of Drake and Tabulam. It is expected to reach the area of Drake and the Bruxner Highway. Firefighters are working with property owners along both these roads to protect properties as the fire front approaches. Strong winds are expected to continue. Fallen trees and fire may impact local roads. The Bruxner Highway is closed between Tabulam and Tenterfield. Check Live Traffic for updates.

Definitely seem to be in a "Frost Hollow" here. Looks like that might be the end of the sub zero morning temps for this year. Edited by user Wednesday, 11 September 2019 5:06:46 PM(UTC)
