Intense heating in north east NSW and the northern inland have created ideal conditions for the development of thunderstorms with severe warnings in place across the region. A line of storms is heading for the Kempsey hinterland with ample lightning and some intense cores indicative of some hail and strong winds based on the structure of the line. The line originated from near Werris Creek late this afternoon.

Looks like a lightning fest for NE NSW particularly the line near Nowendoc!
It was confirmed by a man in Wauchope that one of the best lightning displays in many years occurred nearby to the NW and with it a 'roll cloud' (not sure if he meant sheld cloud…).
What's a sheld cloud? You mean shelf cloud?
Yep typo thanks for spotting Wayne! I hate typing on the ipad / iphone.
