Love those shots, Omaroo. But that's Sydney isn't, great storms like the Gold Coast/Brisbane have.

Reminds me when a storm hit Melbourne just over a year ago.
A few days before xmas, man, I have never ever seen a storm like that.
It was very hot and humid. Sky turned all greenish blue hues.

It rained that had, I reckon we had about 30 ml's in about 10 minutes.
The road near my work flooded that bad, the whole road was under foot of water.
But the most interesting thing we had, was a wind that I reckon was a tornado trying to form. It punched winds that strong it bent tree's over sideways just before they would break.
Then all of a sudden, it stopped. In a blink of an eye. Weird.

Intense photos.
