Dusty SEQ

[jjjnettie (Jeanette)]

It's been coming in slowly all morning, and now it's getting thicker by the minute. Literally.
It's getting darker, the wind is howling and keening through the trees and everything's orange.
Very surreal.

My horse has retreated into the shed, he knows something weird is happening.

Lovely blue skies up here...no dust at all. Probably won't get up this far north.

Hi Jeanette

The stuff has been rolling in for a couple of hours now, we can taste the dust in the air and the pool blanket is covered in a thick film of the stuff. No weekly run for me tonight with my local jogging club – I don’t want to be breathing this stuff any deeper into my lungs! I’ve got as much sense as your horse it seems! LOL!

Cheers

Dennis

Pretty yucky here atm. Need a good thunderstorm to clear the air for imaging tonight.

[jjjnettie (Jeanette)]

It's not as bad as down south, but still you can smell and taste it. There's dust everywhere.

[[1ponders] (Paul)]

Yep, visibility down to less than half a km atm and getting progressively worse.

I see i`m the only one who has to clean the dust out JJJ and everyone hopefully all should be gone tomorrow.

I was dusting and mopping all morning to get rid of it.

Cheers Kev.

Now we're starting to get it up here...should've shut my mouth earlier!!!

It's very hazy now and the Sun has lost quite a bit of it's brilliance. Mind you, it's not dusty like you guys are getting.

[h0ughy (David)]

how incredable has today been. from sunrise to sunset - BTW that is from sunny Newcastle NSW

Yes, its quite eerie outside.
How amazing for this huge dust storm to cover such a massive area!!!
Great pics guys

[jjjnettie (Jeanette)]

That's right Liz. It's awesome stuff.

When I got back to Tas it was 8 degrees and raining, the weather hasn't varied much in the last 3 weeks, but right now given what's happening up there, I'm content where I am. Hopefully the dust won't cause you too much bother.

So Jeanette, what the new toy. You have to let us know now that you have the teaser out with the tower sale

[jjjnettie (Jeanette)]

It's just a little 'ol heq5Pro mount.

[Davros (Lauren)]

Gold, thats exactly what i will be laying some dollars down for when i get back into sunny Qld. Prices are good at the moment ($1500). Hopefully I can make it out to ten chain and then we can spend all night trying to align them together

[jjjnettie (Jeanette)]

Cool. There'll be 3 of them there then. Line 'em up and do an imaging shoot out!!

So your selling the Tower of Terror simply because it is surplus to your needs? Wash your mouth out!! What if my wife heard people talking this way??
