too late its here, i was looking at spica tonight and it is flickering like a candle in the wind. Sometimes it almost disappears!!

[[1ponders]]

At least its coming while I can't see past the clouds. Doesn't look good for imaging this weekend :(

[beren]

:whistle: im in the worst of it at the moment but its heading east :poke:

I have been watching storms most of the night. Some reasonable displays, got a few pics.

A big front just hit us this morning. We thought we were going to lose the car-port at one stage. Gale-force winds big time. Still going on now, & it's now raining in bucket loads..

[ving]

clouds arrived at sydney today :)
oh well

[Astroman]

SOme nice looking stuff out there now. Cold pool behind looks great.

[asimov]

Oh hell...Just watching the news, fair bit of damage around my area & in Adelaide...Apparently that front was nothing, the worst is to hit here shortly....batten down the hatches you guys in Adelaide! I'm off to move my cars from under the carport.

[Astroman]

Yeah bit windy here now. Rain is like pins when it hits your eye's, been out filming the tree's etc..... lots of birds can't fly in the wind so they go with it, great ready for more birds you guys in the east. Few rumbles of thunder and bit of lightning around too, not much though.

[asimov]

2nd front is hitting us right now. Tied my carport to the fence & a holden red motor sitting in the yard, lol.

[h0ughy]

need a picture of that one! is everything still inplace? :prey:

[asimov]

Our house is built up off the ground on stumps, & the house is actually moving....buffeting backwards & forwards...hard to explain really..I'll take pictures in the morning Houghy, If the joint is still standing!! I aint' going out in this crap unless we lose a roof or sumpin!!

[asimov]

Heres a quick one though to keep you guys from gettin' bored...Had to rope the roll off EQ cover to stop from losing that at least! The house can go but not me Astro stuff...NEVER!! :thumbsup:

[davidpretorius]

[h0ughy]

Not a problem, I hope it is of a blue sky with nothing wrong!

[asimov]

Well, were all still alive here lol. Everythings ok. Not sure if the rope saved the carport or not but after tying it up like this, it was only swaying 3-4" in the wind rather than 1 foot! :)

Pics as promised Houghy..:D

[davidpretorius]

good to see you are with and not in with rob in NZ, having got a cheap ride with that wind up your behind!

not that visiting rob is bad, just 30,000 ft without a plane is rather exciting!
