Where Did It Go?
OK we were warned. Newspapers, TV Weather Channel, News Stations, Internet all had it. BIG STORM ON WAY!
Rottnest Ferries were cancelled for the first time in 10 years.
All the talk at school was about the best way to tie down trampolines so that they didn't end up in next door's pool.
Eldest son was warned that BIG STORM was on it's way and that if he was woken in the middle of the night that's what it was and not to worry.
Husband was out on the town last night and quite prepared to arrive home soaked to the skin having had a hair raising taxi drive up the freeway.
So what happened?
No high winds in the middle of the night. No lashing rain. No patio furniture skidding about and frightening the dog.
Where did it go?
So far, I haven't been able to find out. The news sites still have the "Brace Yourselves" and "Wild Weather" headlines. Can anyone else fill me in?
Must be coming tonight??

Unfortunately most of the weather reports we get are pretty bogus. I have to say that the news channels and news papers are the worst source for reliable information on the weather (and sometimes on generals news too).
Go check out: www.weather.com.au.
You get detailed forecasts, including a breakdown of the forecast into morning, afternoon, evening and night. Pretty cool stuff.
Anyway, winter is going out soon. Hurray for Spring!
Btw, cool blog. =)
