That is quite impressive... It basically falls inline with what Ken said a week ago. Date wise at least.
Fingers crossed that is a sign of the end of the dry season and a start of a more humid months ahead.

You must have spooked ACESSS

Its done a downgrade in strength tonight for NE NSW and SE QLD..Still lots of time for some adjustments.

Thank your for posting Warwick. I actually stumbled across that (or a similar) article this afternoon whilst bored on a flight. Thank goodness for inflight WiFi!

This was the one I was reading. (Quite sad and worrying read for this part of the world.)

Yeah as far I know that not on the BoM site. But as I don't have a nearby comparable site and as my data isn't directly comparable with any BoM site, being a micro-climate, in a suburban backyard etc., I instead use my station generated average. For dew point I use an average of 2009 to 2015. I'm in Ferny Grove in NW Brisbane.
