I heard a distant Storm Bird this morning. A bit earlier in the year than normal I think.

Yes, extremely dry. Between 0730 and 1130 today we experienced a drop in DP of 28.3C (+18.1 to -10.2). Townsville is one of DP extremes. In summer we regularly have DPs in the mid 20's and higher. In winter dry nonsense like this. I do recall seeing a -18 DP sometime in the 80's.

just the 1mm in downtown kirwan, would have taken that 4mm though, the 20mm on northern beaches would have been even better.

Does anyone know of any good webcams to view in Townsville? I can't seem to find any decent ones (or working ones for that matter) that give a good view of the city or suburbs.

Seems like every time the BOM put out a 3 monthly update it's always saying it's going to be above average temps with not much rain ...
