Sunday, October 4th, 2009
Finally some significant rainfall across the Sydney region and south along the coast. Some heavy falls occurred in the parched South Coast where water restrictions are about to be issued.
The rain began overnight Friday as thunderstorms streamed in from the northwest. Some hailstorms amongst the many cells that developed and rapidly drifted towards the coast. Most of the more consistent rainfall however occurred on 3rd October. Models seem to indicate a wet pattern and relatively cooler weather at least for the first part of October.
Meanwhile, in contrast, bushfires and heat waves conditions persist in Queensland and parts of northern NSW.

Hi Jimmy, An interesting aspect of the developing rain event is that GFS was forecasting this well over a week ago. It’s not often the charts remain so consistent. A high ridging NE into the northern Tasman Sea is a perfect situation to cradle a coastal low for a couple of days. Brisbane could do with some heavy falls though I suspect the worst of the flooding potential will again effect the Bellinger River.
The latest GFS rainfall chart is attached. Some parts of the Tweed Valley and SE QLD have had over 100mm of rain already.

There seems to be consistency in an approaching heavy rainfall event flooding for NE New South Wales and SE Queensland over the coming days. WOW – predictions of up to 700mm is quite phenomenal! Hope the farmers are able to get some good rains out of this system and the drought is broken. It is so hearbreaking to see just one event after another miss the most needed areas of the state!
As to the photos of the baby, I leave it up to Imelda to get them prepared. Perhaps she may upload a few more soon.
