Great photos Mano. I hope there's no damage to your car.

If you go to http://weather.theage.com.au/local.jsp? ... c=1564&t=b
and click on "satellite", you can see the end of this cloud bank moving away.
It's pity they don't have the rain radar images for Newcastle that you can get for Melbourne or Sydney.

Look up the top, there's multiple galleries, and one of them is called "Storm" or something similar.

Yeah was find the next day.. it's been pretty much raining here everyday.. quite sick of the shit to tell you the truth.. want some fucking sun! it's jsut started to rain now :cry:

yet again!!

Umm nah no damge to me cars, very very close tho.. was up to the garage roller door.. i had to dig 1/2 the garden out to get the GT up closer to the house.. could get it out quick enough..

All good here now

still shit everywhere.. and cars and trees just hanging out everywhere..

For that day u said above.. they thought it was to be like 11.4m to reach peak.. but only was 10. something.. so was lucky.. we couldnt of got anything tho.. but they didnt get to bad.. which is lucky..

Heaps insurance clams and shit, they are still flat out.. it's ova the 1 billion mark so yeah.. pretty big $$ involved..
