Was watching the Sky Weather channel Friday morning. They were showing a blob of heavy rain moving up the Illawarra coast Sunday evening. The position of the blob was exactly spot on as it is now.
Interesting that they'd call it then, but it didn't appear in the BOM forecasts till 12 hours ago.

Power surge here too. The eastern suburbs are under the (very) little brother of April 1999.

Ok Homer let's grab our pitchforks and flaming torches and form a mob to march up to the BoM like you did to the La Maison Derrière. Not at all. Just wondering where this came from at such short notice. I don't have my pitch fork out for anyone. No one spoke about it here. Nor did BOM. Just trying to get a better understanding of forecasting. Nothing more.

Power surge here too. The eastern suburbs are under the (very) little brother of April 1999. Nearly 19 years to the day. Was reading a Weather Underground article this morning that talked about costliest hail storms. The Sydney storm of '99 was the most costliest hail storm on record in the whole frikken world. So there you go. First rumble here.
