Re: NSW / SEQ Thunderstorms 27 Feb – 3 Mar 2011

· by Jimmy Deguara

I went out chasing again on the 28'th of Feb (first photo) and the 1'st of March.

The first of March storm was awesome! Big nasty gustfront followed by strong wind and heavy rain. Coffs recorded 2 gust of 98kmh. I was at Mylestom again at the time and the gusts were savage! After photographing the guster I tried to make my way back to Sawtell, the roads were covered in branches and even a couple of trees were laying across the road. I took a different way out of Mylestom via repton to get around a large tree over the highway.

I made it back to sawtell and shot some lightning from the back end..
