This viewer has been watching with growing interest the radar anomalies
over Australia. Having observed the phenomena over a period of time, a
question arises – is it a coincidence that on March 5th at 3.16pm a completely
different type of anomaly appeared (see screen shot)?? Approximately 1/3 of the
‘National Loop’ on the BOM site was covered in white….not every frame but just
frame 3, and this continued for well over an hour. The anomaly only showed
when the satellite selection was ticked. When the satellite selection was unticked
Melbourne was showing heavy rains, albeit with a radar anomaly over
Tasmania…..
We all know what happened on March 7th – a mini cyclone in Melbourne with
devastating consequences…flood waters like has never been seen. IS there a
connection?? What on earth happened?? Or was it just another huge flock of
birds…….
5th March Melbourne Radar Loop….
5th March with only radar selected - no satellite.
5th March with satellite and radar overlaid - Frame 3
5th March with satellite and radar overlaid - Frame 4
So the white area was INTERMITTENT showing only on frame 3…….
