Rain starting to set in here in Brisbane. We’re in for a good old fashioned Autumn dumping #brisbane #bneweather

Hail keeps bouncing into my apartment ❄️ #BNEWeather #BNEStorm

Hey why have we had so much hail recently? Is the climate changing or something? #brisbane #brisbaneweather #BNEWeather

One of those Saturday afternoons in Brisbane. ⛈️⚡️ #bneweather #storms #lightningstrike #qld #strayamate

I hope it rains. Feels like it hasn't rained in months.

Waiting for lunch on Park Road, Milton…

Some smart-arse is playing "Dragon - Rain" at full blast.

Alfred has moved 20km EAST in the last three hours 😭😭😭 #Alfred #TCAlfred #bneweather

the artist has drawn herself standing on the banks of nophica's wells, an area in final fantasy 14. She is wearing sunglasses, and has a blank expression, but you can see sweat on her brow. She is fishing. Above her to the right, an old, windows 95 style explorer window is displaying the following information: Window header - Live Weather Forecast Window text: Brisbane, Queensland (Active Warning) - Windy. Rain. - Cyclone expected. Western Thanalan, Eorzea - Clear skies. There is a caption at the bottom of the image in Impact font that reads, "I'm keeping an eye on it."

How's every one doin 👀💦🎣

OK, so admittedly I made the mistake of moving/zooming and missed getting a good shot.

Was getting too wet and had to go feed the pets.

I may swear in this one… sorry.

#BNEStorm #BNEWeather #Lightning - a little

Sound off if you want to avoid hearing my fur baby voice.

After several moments of unadulterated clear view of angry fork lightning - I pull out video on the iPhone … and you know it.

Nothing exciting happens.

Until of course I move or put away camera. No swears? 🤞🏻

This photo captures a dramatic, pre-storm scene viewed from a covered porch or balcony. The dominant feature is the sky, a swirling mass of dark grey storm clouds that fill the upper two-thirds of the image. These clouds are heavy and ominous, hinting at impending rain. A vibrant band of orange and yellow light cuts through the darkness of the clouds near the horizon. This bright, almost fiery light contrasts sharply with the gloom above, creating a striking visual effect. It suggests the sun is either setting or just below the horizon, its light being filtered and intensified by the storm clouds. Below the sky, a lush green landscape stretches into the distance. Trees of varying heights and shades of green fill the middle ground, their leaves appearing almost dark against the bright sky. A well-maintained grassy acreage, occupies the foreground. The view is framed by elements of the porch or balcony. Two vertical black posts stand prominently in the center of the image, dividing the view into three vertical sections. A thin black railing with horizontal wires runs across the middle of the photo, adding a sense of depth and perspective. These structural elements create a sense of being inside, looking out at the dramatic natural scene.

This weather map from the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, issued at 6:14 PM AEST on December 28th, shows thunderstorm locations and a 60-minute forecast for damaging winds. The map covers a region of Southeast Queensland, Australia, from the Sunshine Coast in the north to the Gold Coast in the south and extending west to areas like Toowoomba and Dalby. The map's background is a light beige colour, representing the landmass. Various towns and cities are marked with tiny black dots and labels, providing geographical context. Significant cities like Brisbane, Ipswich, and the Gold Coast are indicated. The key feature of the map is the depiction of thunderstorm activity. There are two main areas of interest: 1. Immediate Threat Area: Located southwest of the Gold Coast, extending towards the border with New South Wales, this area is highlighted with a solid yellow colour. This indicates an immediate threat of severe thunderstorms with damaging winds. 2. Severe Thunderstorm Area: Within the immediate threat area, two smaller, concentric red and orange shapes indicate the most intense part of the storm, where the risk of damaging winds is highest. These shapes resemble a bullseye, with the darkest red at the centre. The map also includes a scale bar at the bottom, indicating distances from 0 to 120 kilometres, allowing viewers to estimate the size and extent of the storm systems. A compass rose in the bottom left corner shows the cardinal directions (North, South, East, and West). The map clearly warns of severe thunderstorm activity, with the most intense storms concentrated southwest of the Gold Coast. Using colour and distinct shapes effectively highlights the areas at most significant risk.

Dramatic pre-storm scene from a porch. Dark grey storm clouds fill the sky, contrasting with a bright orange/yellow horizon—green trees and grass below. Black porch posts and railing frame the view. A sense of anticipation and drama before the storm.

It’s cooooooming!

image shows a flooded road in Karana Downs-Mt Crosby Rd near Colleges Crossing in Queensland, Australia. The water level is high, covering the entire road surface and reaching up to the bottom of the guardrails. The water is a murky brown color, suggesting it is carrying sediment and debris. Due to the flooding, the road has been closed by police, requiring motorists to take a lengthy detour. In the background, there are trees and lush green vegetation, indicating a rural area. The image was captured on December 18, 2024, at 12:46:01 PM.

Imagine a map of Southeast Queensland. It's a mess! Big red circles, like angry eyes, are scattered everywhere. These are severe thunderstorms, and they're overlapping, getting closer and closer. You see 'Brisbane' and 'Gold Coast' written there, but those names are almost lost in the sea of red. Then there's this smaller, darker red circle around Brisbane. That's the 'Immediate Threat,' and it's creeping in. You can almost hear the sirens wailing. And look at that wider red circle! It covers a huge area, and it's getting bigger. It's like the whole region is on fire. But that's not all. As in previous pic Colleges crossing is CLOSED due to flooding. Closed! People are not yet stranded but some starting to panic. Reports of other “minor flooding” nearby in other parts of Southeast Queensland already. Minor? It doesn't sound so minor when you see those storms brewing. And the forecast? More rain. More thunderstorms. Today. It feels like the sky is about to crack open. This isn't a drill, folks. This is real!

Luckily, I had finished my four river crossings today.

Crossed here just as it started to floodlate this morning..

Already had more rainfall than in our previous major flood years (2x November falls).

Ground already very wet.

Gulp + more storms today.

If it’s flooded, forget it!

#BNEWeather

I saw they mentioned there wasn't a cyclone forming, but if you look at the rain radar zoomed out it's definitely got some spin to it. So there must have been the possibility.

#ArmchairMeteorology #BNEWeather

How about this heat?
#BNEweather

any #bneweather yarns?

Torrents of rain turn the road into a black mirror, reflecting a sky filled with bad omens. It's a scene straight out of an Albert King song, a "Born Under a Bad Sign" kind of day where even the road ahead seems to sing the blues. The flooded intersection ahead? A fleeting thought, quickly dismissed. This ain't the day to test fate. Nope, the only luck I've got left is knowing when to turn around and find a different route.

To be fair, I should have expected this.

Yeah, could have made it.

But the only luck I’ve known is bad.

If it’s flooded, forget it.

This is a weather map issued by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology at 6:01 PM AEST on November 5, 2024, showing a thunderstorm location and 60-minute forecast for large hailstones and damaging winds, valid at 5:55 PM AEST. The map shows a red shaded area, indicating an immediate threat of severe thunderstorms, extending from Cherbourg in the north to just west of Gympie in the east, and south to the Sunshine Coast. A larger yellow shaded area surrounds this, representing the broader warning area where severe thunderstorms are possible. Several towns and cities are marked on the map, including: Gympie: Located within the immediate threat area. Noosa Heads: Just outside the immediate threat area, to the northeast. Maroochydore and Caloundra: On the Sunshine Coast, within the warning area. Brisbane CBD: South of the warning area. Toowoomba: West of the warning area. A key indicates that the red area represents an "Immediate Threat" and the yellow area signifies "Severe Thunderstorms." A scale indicates distances on the map. The map is a Mercator Projection and includes copyright information for the Bureau of Meteorology.

OK, so there was an ulterior motive in getting Missy a new toy.

Currently 35°C feels like 39°C

Or for those unfamiliar 95°F feels like 102.2°F

Definitely feeling for the ND students in my neighbourhood where the schools only had power restored in last few hours.

Actually wearing a jumper. At the start of bloody February. #bneweather is broekn.

OK #bneweather, WTF ? This time of year we shouldn’t even go down to 21º _at night_, let alone have it as a daily maximum. Don’t make me drag out the heater.
