⚠️There are 2 ways for us to look at tomorrows forecast for SEQLD & NENSW and both have a very high risk of severe storms occurring! Some cells could go next level and be very dangerous - those ones you are in and go wholly F$%^‼️
🔴On the top end of the scale some High Precipitation Supercells are very likely to develop - I say HPS because the atmospheric profile is saturated with moisture and strong instability not to mention very fast wind shear. This combo generates extreme rainfall & flash flooding. Within that you also have the risk of microbursts with destructive winds over 125km/h and giant hail over 5cms up to around 10cms. These sups will be more discrete across both regions and picking an exact time and location is actually impossible - so it is more about the fact that they have reasonable potential of developing throughout the day.
🌪️A Tornado??? ONE OR TWO maybe - just leave it at that and see what happens. Like a needle in a haystack for those with a small but credible risk.
🔴A severe storm outbreak is absolutely on the cards with heavy rain, flash flooding, large hail, damaging winds occurring anywhere in the circled area. I think we could see over 20 individual severe cells later becoming a Mesoscale Convective System (large cluster of severe storms).
✅You have been forewarned, so stay safe!
⚠️In North-East NSW & South-East QLD severe storms will amplify this Spring with Damaging Hail & Winds a very high risk!

Darcy’s Daily Weather 🌧️

Storms likely this afternoon into SEQLD/Darling Downs/NENSW.

Thought I should just do a full forcast for the Darling Downs and SEQLD and the one I did earlier is focused for NENSW.

There will be a fair bit of Instability that will develop across SEQLD and the Darling Downs as well as that surface trough and the other factors with clusters of storms expected to develop over the course of this afternoon with a few severe storms also possible if the ingredients properly come together with the focus in the Darling Downs/Western SEQLD and of course into NENSW.

The ACCESS-C is showing strong, severe storm activity into Southern SEQLD and will include Brisbane as well as the severe storms in NENSW and a few in the Darling Downs with it also calling for possibly a supercell or two, though not extremely likely and not guaranteed and will definitely be the scattered severe storm activity.

Heavy falls and some gusty-damaging winds are expected inside of these storms and also the chances for pockets of hail (particularly into NENSW) with small hail being the expectations and some large hail possible into the Severe storm across as it moves eastwards and the possibly dangerous supercells into NENSW.

The worst affected areas will be into NENSW/Inland NENSW, Warwick/Ipswich/Scenic Rim, Coffs Harbour/Lismore/Byron Bay-ish, where severe storms are likely and other areas in SEQLD as shown on the map.

It will be interesting and there is that rain moving in that could suppress it a bit but it is pretty tame. Cheers Darcy

It was an absolute honour to meet Doug Baird OAM at Due South over the weekend and hear him share the story of his son, Corporal Cameron Baird VC MG, a Tasmanian-born Australian soldier who made the ultimate sacrifice serving our country in Afghanistan.

Cameron was posthumously awarded the Victoria Cross, Australia’s highest military honour, for his extraordinary courage and sacrifice.

Doug’s dedication to keeping Cameron’s story alive, honouring our servicemen and women, and supporting veterans and first responders is truly inspiring.

These are the stories we must never forget. The courage, mateship and sacrifice of our heroes deserve our utmost respect and recognition.

Thank you, Doug, for sharing your story with us. 🇦🇺❤️
