Angry North East Vic Weather

Well it was looking good to try out the new camera until about lunch time today. We are now under what appears to be a massive cloud of dust. Not smoke, no smell. The dust is starting to obscure the detail in the trees of the surrounding mountains with a very stiff and hot north wind pushing it up the valley.

When will this weather settle down a bit?
:help :

Hi Doug, we have storm clouds, 31 degrees and 76% humidity. It feels like I'm living in the tropics.

Just waiting for the 5:30 easterly to blow in and cool thing down.

Cheers

I dont know if it was sanctioned but I bought it anyway.
QHY9 Mono and filter wheel. Filters still to be purchased. I will keep the QHY8 as it is much quicker and easier especially during daylight saving when the evenings are short.
