Stormy Weather

Over the past month, the weather has found itself rather confused. At the start of November, we had two weeks of summer-weather, with nearly two weeks of 35C and above. Fortunately things have since cooled down, however last week a rather severe storm hit the region.

We didn't have too much damage occur - only some smaller branches broken off the trees, however things weren't quite so mild in-town, where the wind was able to blow across the lake unimpeded.

A similar storm-front looked like it was approaching the following afternoon, but ended up being a small amount of wind and some sparse heavy rain-drops. The next photo was taken as a panorama, and can be clicked to see the full-view.

Some extra photos can be seen in the gallery.

I love the panorama - the cloud looks so menacing! I'm glad you didn't have too much damage - I love storms, but they can be pretty dangerous.

Thanks - I was surprised by how well the panorama turned out once it'd been stitched together. I also don't mind storms either - lightning in particular can be so impressive, but when it gets windy enough to blow over trees, things are starting to get a little extreme ;)
