<html><body style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">I thought our 24 rainfall was probably getting up there, seems I was right:<br /><br />"Broome's just had it's wettest December day on record with 226mm of rain..."<br />https://www.facebook.com/ABCKimberley/videos/10154868688697156/<br /><br />Shire, Power and Water crew were out this morning monitoring and fixing damage.<br />Sat feed for radio and TV is sporadic but I get good DX to Europe on 21MHz USB and I can hear Singapore and Japan on 50 MHz FM very clear so tropospheric ducting to the North is lovely.<br />We have scattered embedded thunderstorms, known cloud base within 30 miles is about 500 feet, maximum known cloud base 35,000 feet, visibility down to 2k's in rain.<br /><br />I'm available over Christmas/New Year if anyone needs remote hands.<br /><blockquote>----- Original Message -----<br /><div style="width:100%;background:rgb(228,228,228);"><div style="font-weight:bold;">From:</div> "Kai" <vk6ksj@westnet.com.au></div><br /><div style="font-weight:bold;">To:</div>"ausnog" <ausnog@ausnog.net><br /><div style="font-weight:bold;">Cc:</div><br /><div style="font-weight:bold;">Sent:</div>Fri, 23 Dec 2016 12:18:48 +0800<br /><div style="font-weight:bold;">Subject:</div>Re: [AusNOG] Hatches Battened, May your uptime be solid - anyone got kit in the Kimberley/Pilbara in WA?<br /><br /><br />
If anyone's got any kit in the Kimberley or Pilbara be aware the
region-wide flood warnings due to a rain bearing tropical low North East
from Broome and Tropical Cyclone Yvette, currently estimated at 800k's
NW from Broome, not expected to reach more than Cat 2 intensity so she's
packed full of rain.<br />Broome's had 200mm and counting since 9am
yesterday, for some perspective our yearly average is 400mm and with the
two low pressure systems with associated trough we're expected
continued wall to wall grey with constant drizzle until probably Monday
or Tuesday.<br /><br />If you're on Facebook it was like this at 9am today<br />https://www.facebook.com/spot.hazzard/posts/10154224697341238<br />and this<br />https://www.facebook.com/underthearenaandco/videos/645416952303619/<br /><br />Broome
airport was closed for a while this morning with flights diverted to
Port Hedland, services have been restored on a logistics basis.<br />Last time we had rain like this we lost power for six days so I hope your UPS's are ready.<br /><br />What's that actually look like?<br />http://satview..bom.gov.au/<br /><br />...and
if you don't know where Broome is select "Cities" from the Layers
option at the bottom left, then look to the North West of the country
near the big swirling clouds.<blockquote><br />----- Original Message -----<br /><div style="width:100%;background:rgb(228,228,228);"><div style="font-weight:bold;">From:</div> "Michael J.
