22.01.2022 Mesmerising waves in Stratus clouds - the beauty of atmospheric physics
22.01.2022 If it felt hot overnight it’s because it was! This is the maximum temperature around town between midnight and 6:30am... #whileyouweresleeping
16.01.2022 Sky is clear, so look west around 7:05pm to see some satellite action...
11.01.2022 Hoping skies stay clear over Melbourne tomorrow (Monday) evening. An Elon Musk Starlink satellite cluster goes almost overhead, rising from the NW 7:04pm, overhead 7:07pm and descending in SE 7:10pm, then as thats happening the International Space Station (much brighter) travels from the WSW at 7:05pm, highest point 7:09pm, descending to NNE at 7:11pm. Find somewhere with as little light as possible tomorrow, 7pm, and look west... https://findstarlink.com/ https://www.heavens-above.com/AllSats.aspx
08.01.2022 So that’s why I’m sweating... into the muggy range for dew point (the temperature at which dew will form) http://www.baywx.com.au/melbdewtemp.html
08.01.2022 If you're one of those people in Melbourne saying 'wheres that rain they promised'... well its been belting down about 0-30km south of you. Cerberus has had its 20 mm before 2pm. Trough slowly moving east so you'll get rain 'soon'. https://theweatherchaser.com//2020-0/Australia%2FMelbourne
07.01.2022 Spring is almost here!
07.01.2022 Not one you see very often at Sandringham Beach in 8-10 knots SSW #paragliding
06.01.2022 What a difference a year makes. 2019 374 mm (red line), 2020 786 mm (black line) Rainfall in Melbourne can vary considerably based on the temperature of the tropical Pacific and Indian oceans, thousands of kilometres way. In 2020, rainfall was more than double what it was in 2019, largely because warm ocean waters were near Australia, whereas in 2019 the oceans were warmer near Africa. 2019 positive Indian Ocean Dipole, 2020 La Nina http://baywx.com.au/accumall.html

01.01.2022 The (real) Terminator. The division between day and night, centred over Australia and Japan, a satellite image each month on the 22nd from September 2019 to September 2020 (equinox to equinox). Note the sun glint in the ocean on the right side of the image, which shows how the overhead sun moves south then north
