Major flooding has occurred in the lower Tweed Valley and SE Queensland, as a tropical low crosses the coast in the tourist packed region. Areas around the town of Murwillumbah have suffered a wild night with 10 inches of rain in some places. Springbrook in SE Queensland has received almost 41 inches of rain in four days.

It's looking very much like a wet Christmas now with more rain falling in the Sydney region this afternoon. A very loud thunderstorm passed through the Northern beaches district about 5pm AEST resulting in a few overflowing gutters.

Hunter Valley Flash Flood

Recent storms in the Hunter valley have produced spectacular but sometimes frightening weather phenomena. Kellicks Creek was a prime example of why you should avoid low level water or causeway crossings during and after thunderstorms or heavy rainfall. This video was captured showing the full force of a flash flood which arrived in seconds out of nowhere.

Severe thunderstorms rolled across the Sydney Basin on Wednesday night, 21/11/2007 and created a spectacular lightning show. I managed to get this picture from Harbord Point near the Harbord Diggers Club.

Some folks are saying his picture shows a tornado or water spout in the centre of the picture.

Quite a few storms built up between Sydney and Canberra this afternoon. I took a drive down that way to see if I could get a few shots. I wasn't disappointed. Here's hoping tomorrow will allow some pictures closer to Sydney with some action of the high voltage kind.
