Enjoy the purple & pink, embrace it, make it your own.

I presume you are referring to this:

Quote:

The extreme heat in central Australia saw the weather bureau add new colours to its forecast maps yesterday:

deep purple for 50 degrees Celsius to 52 degrees Celsius; and
magenta for 52 degrees Celsius to 54 degrees Celsius.

Yesterday, the bureau's forecast maps for Sunday and Monday showed a deep purple area over the South Australian outback.

However, those forecasts have been revised today, with forecast temperatures no longer hitting the purple range.

About half-way up the west coast, the town of Winslow is about to get grazed by a category 3 or 4 cyclone.

That's not for a day or so yet, so in the meanwhile, here's a ~~beer tsunami after a humungous explosion at the brewery~~ crazy dust storm complete with thunder and lightning, rain and hail (according to FB posts) that drifted out to sea.

Thanks, V, I just noticed that then.

Uhh, umm, I couldn't read the sign properly because of all the dust! Yes, that's it....

Baked.

We're hoping for snow on Monday.
It's unlikely to hit us until after school, but I might get to walk to school in it on Tuesday morning. Yay! New peacock wellies all set and ready for action.

Griff · 01-12-2013, 07:31 AM

We've got the fog eating snow thing happening here.

Griff · 01-12-2013, 08:02 AM

Rain. Slow, steady, soak things down rain. ooohhhhh yeeeaahhhh baby. It seems pretty local around Adelaide at present, I hope it drifts slowly across the whole South East of the country.

xoxoxoBruce · 01-12-2013, 08:28 PM

Send some to Sydney, the ocean dried up.
