I thought this thread was supposed to be about spiders

Thanks hon, they're saying it was probably a Category 1 cyclone but because it wasn't tropical in nature they didn't give it a name.

Actually got some blue sky today. It was super humid this morning.

USA tourists?

It's a Sydney tradition to impale a few tourists around the Quay.

Sadly though that pic, along with a few others that cropped up, has now proven to be faked (as I suspected)

...unlike this pic of a Sydney train station almost under water...

We joke, as Aussies do, but many people have lost everything and lives have been lost.

We joke, but we have big hearts as well.

Saw the station river running wild on one of last nights news reports, really amazing, also saw a post on FB before the torrent reached peak too...

Bloomin' heck, and now we just had this massive hail storm roll through. Fortunately the hail was pea sized but it looks like hundreds of bean bags have exploded everywhere!!

Just saw this

http://www.news.com.au/technology/environment/hail-batters-sydney-causes-the-collapse-of-two-factories/story-e6frflp0-1227320600142

Looking at the radar at the time I think where I live caught the edge of it, so areas a bit further north and west seemed to cop the brunt of it. 5cm of hail, wow!

Glad I got the washing done early.

It's mostly stopped now........but has caused a couple of small leaks in our back lounge....

Just when we thought it was safe to go outside.

Came and went while visiting the pain monster.
Heavy

It rumbled around the mountains for ages, it came, it went back, it came and came in force... no hail here, but it looked worse as it headed ocean-ward.

Now there's a another lot over us  Luckily we did not get hail at all today, which is just as well as my car has seen a lot over the years 

Radar is showing a little this evening, then we should be OK... but its gonna turn cold after this... Yes I know its already cold there Cindy...

Yes Cindy's in either heaven or hell but never in between.
Can't keep her happy.

Oh, I'm burning up.
