Impressive storms with decent anvil near Kempsey

· by Jimmy Deguara

Michael, 

Very impressive storms I must say and great action given the carnage you guys found! Very photogenic as well.

We found a storm and it seemed to survive for some time and had a decent anvil at some points but as it approached Kempsey, lightning activity dropped and so did the intensity. I think at most it was marginally severe from what I could see.

Was quite hot here – change finally arrived.
