Storm cell Moree

Driving from Brisbane back to Young on New Year's Day. My overnight stop was Moree. 50km north of Moree I stopped and thought I'd waited out this storm cell. I am about 40km north of the cell when this picture was taken.

When I thought it had moved far enough east, I resumed heading into Moree and drove through the trailing edge of it. Glad I stopped and missed the middle. I was having to make steering corrections due to the strength of the wind and the rain was so hard I had to slow right down with wipers on high. I literally hit the trailing edge of it. 4-5 minutes and I was through. Glad I didn't drive into the middle of it.

I dodged two more with some extended rest stops on Tuesday between Wellington and Cowra. Arrived home dent free.
