Looks like a rather large storm is on its way across central brissy tonight.

The radar has almost black areas (which i've never seen on the BOM radar before).

Check it out.

yeah looks like it could be a doozy

we just got pea sized hail.....

the sky looks very green though.. so maybe more will come

mmm 3,000,000 Volt boltz of white loud stuff

Reports of Tennis ball sized Hail near Grafton, from the system heading this way...

Paging cerb to the thread for photos and videos@#!

It's looking good to pass over my place around 5:45ish. Can feel the pressure change happening now. That sweet, sweet pre-storm breeze.

just started raining in newmarket yo

I'm working until 7 in the CBD. Its almost here. getting dark now.

Need to drive from Auchenflower to Albion for a meeting at 6... fun times ahead.

Gold coast dips out again DAMMIT!!!!

ran in new farm, no hail yet, heard there is some in west end.

A DAMN IT.

Just had a closer look at BOM and the Sky, looks like it will miss us by about 1-2 KM's. So we cop a bit of rain but none of the good stuff.

Lots of thunder here now and the sky's looking pretty nasty. No rain as yet, but I imagine it'll start any minute now. (Eatons Hill)

woot for driving through the city in 30 min...

Been a bit of a fizzer in Annerley (the place to be).

misses us again.. dnno if that is good or bad

I hate those melbourne players

weaksauce between westend and salisbury

That sucked enormous wang, had to ride home in that with no wet weather gear :(

speaking of sauce - i'm craving a pie with smokey bbq sauce...

hail was pretty soft thankfully

not having undercover parking = dongs

That wasn't a storm

Yeah it was wanting to be then it failed.

it had so much potential.. but failed.

kinda like the nrl grand final this year?

AMIRITE OR WHAT GUYS

haha, I was really busy at work this evening and couldn't leave early like usual. I made a break for home at 6pm but got caught in the second lot of rain. Just made it to shelter as the rain got really intense so I figured I'd check the radar (<3 the BOM radar app on the iPhone) to see if I should wait it out when it started hailing.

+1 (On the iPod)

We're getting some little hail here now.

Got huge Hailed here at Burleigh heads at noon.

I want more hail & storms & lightning! Bring orn the old Brisbane summer storms.

and insurance claims

It better not start in Brisbane until after 4pm. I gotta ride my pushy home :(

Edit: Just checked BOM, looks like it's probably going to miss us at this stage.
