WEATHER: BEAUTIFUL AUTUMN WEATHER BEFORE CLOUD RETURNS
It is going to be cold tonight and very chilly when we wake. Even the Gold Coast and Northern Rivers will have a little chill in the air tomorrow morning. Frosts will be about on the Tablelands. The winds will ease and the sun will shine warming things quickly through the day. There is high level…

WEATHER: WINTER A STEP CLOSER
The first snow of the season has fallen on the Central Tablelands at Oberon and Orange this afternoon, as an intense low spirals over southern New South Wales and Victoria. This will pump cold, dry air north. It will get windy with gale wind warnings issued for the Hunter and strong wind warnings elsewhere. Expect…

WEATHER: SATURATED SATURDAY BEFORE MARVELLOUS MONDAY
It was a very wet Easter at times, but as expected, it all blew over allowing us to dry out before the long weekend’s end. We squeezed in a great day before a big line of storms made its way across the west this afternoon. This is a pre-frontal trough. The front behind it has lots…

WEATHER: SEVERE STORMS
Severe storms caused flash flooding at Coffs Harbour this afternoon. Nasty storms and heavy down pours also affected Taree and the Manning. It was all connected to a fresh southerly that has been making its way up the coast. This southerly is finally strong enough to clear some of the heat from the North West, making…

WEATHER: MORE STORMS
A big line of severe storms has been making its way across the North West from Narrabri to Nundle, hitting most areas in between, travelling in a north easterly direction tonight. The Hunter is also copping its fair share of severe storms this afternoon. It is ahead of a gusty southerly that will produce rain…

WEATHER: CYCLONE CENTRAL
Cyclone Pam is still intensifying while moving south in between Fiji and the Solomons. Cyclone Nathan is also intensifying, moving towards the northern tropical Queensland coast. The tropical low off Western Australia is likely to become a cyclone off the Pilbara coast. Northern New South Wales was under a ribbon of cloud today thanks to a…

WEATHER: INLAND STORMS
Storm development was quite widespread across the North West today, producing valuable rain to a selected few on the land. Rain is very much needed and tomorrow there should be more storm development across the North West, the Tablelands and Upper Hunter. It’s still very humid for the Central Coast, Hunter and areas to the…

WEATHER: NORTHERN NSW COASTAL STORMS
PHOTO: Bar Beach in Newcastle by Kim Jones. Storms dumped 50 to 65 millimetres around Coffs Harbour, Grafton and Woolgoolga yesterday and more storms have flared up around those areas again today. Humidity levels are high east of the Divide once again, and more patchy shower and storm development is likely tomorrow across northern New…

WEATHER: A SWELL WEEKEND
A succession of fast-moving fronts, and now an intense low in the Tasman, is generating a solid swell pummeling the New South Wales coast. The swell is going to remain big across the weekend. Winds have been quite favourable to produce some epic surfing conditions, but strong rips and huge sets are making for dangerous…

WEATHER: AUTUMN AWESOMENESS
This is my favourite time of the year and the first week of March is living up to expectations. Mornings have been cool and the days sunny and warm. The only catch is, it’s getting hotter inland, exacerbating the drought situation. An early Autumn heatwave is unfolding across the nation’s interior and some of that heat…
