    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: NORTHERN NSW COASTAL STORMS

    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

    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

    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…

  • WEATHER: COASTAL CLOUD TO BURN OFF

    WEATHER: COASTAL CLOUD TO BURN OFF

    The southerly change that triggered a big line of severe storms yesterday pumped in plenty of cloud today that has wedged in between the mountains and the coast. Inland it is still sunny and hot. Along the coast tomorrow the cloud cover will burn off making for a fine Tuesday. There’s plenty of heat so…

  • WEATHER: A LITTLE STORM ACTION

    WEATHER: A LITTLE STORM ACTION

    A line of storms flared up this afternoon, stretching from the Upper Hunter along the ranges to New England and the border. They moved over the slopes and reached parts of the coast. We’re expecting more shower and storm development tomorrow, particularly around the ranges. Conditions will clear to kick start the weekend. A change…

  • WEATHER: STILL VERY DRY INLAND

    WEATHER: STILL VERY DRY INLAND

    The weekend deluge has helped ease conditions across the Clarence Valley and around Casino in the Northern Rivers after a prolonged dry spell. The excessive rain in south east Queensland may trigger a Ross River outbreak with mosquito numbers expected to swell, but the inland areas of the North West remain very dry. They received…

  • WEATHER: CYCLONE MAY COME DOWN THE COAST

    WEATHER: CYCLONE MAY COME DOWN THE COAST

    There are numerous lows forming along the monsoon trough at the moment, one of them may become a concern to us later in the week. The low in the Coral Sea may head south affecting the south east Queensland coast around Thursday and the northern New South Wales coast by the weekend. These systems have…

  • WEATHER: COASTAL SHOWERS EASING

    WEATHER: COASTAL SHOWERS EASING

    The northern New South Wales coast and south east Queensland has had a consistent run of showers, with some heavy localised falls. This shower activity is going to ease across the weekend. The onshore winds will still be with us, making for more humid days and nights. The Hunter has seen a few small showers and…

  • WEATHER: A VERY CONSISTENT WEEK AHEAD

    WEATHER: A VERY CONSISTENT WEEK AHEAD

    The forecast for the rest of the week is looking very similar. Moist onshore winds will create partly cloudy skies, with the occasional isolated shower falling on the eastern side of the Divide. Inland it is going to remain very hot and dry. It’s all thanks to a slow moving high over the southern Tasman.
