    PM sent Paul, but here is the link if anyone else wants to have a look; https://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/So...s/261100802504

    Here is BOM (Bureau of Meteorology) website radar page; http://www.bom.gov.au/weather/radar/
    , most of you are already familiar with the BOM radar site but for those that are not just click on the radar closest to where you are.

    The radar images show where the rain is falling and the intensity of the rain. If you click on radar loop it will show a series of images so you can see where the rain is moving. If you have a GPS you can find your exact location on the radar.

    There is also a "weather warnings" link just above the top left of the radar images, click on that to see if there are any warnings current for your area warnings (they also list fire, ocean and wind warnings), there are warning maps at the bottom of the warning pages. You occasionally see an arrow pointing to a storm with the warning "this is a very dangerous storm", you want to hope these storms are not headed your direction. Keep an eye on the warning pages as they get updated as the weather situation changes.
