Cyclone Debbie Category 4 Fury: ‘18 hours of hell’ to come.

RESIDENTS in the firing line of Cyclone Debbie have been warned they face an agonising and hellish wait for the worst of the storm fury to pass.
The slow moving category four cyclone will not only linger along the coast but is also expected to hit towns up to 100km inland.
The Bureau of Meteorology predicts Debbie, which is expected to make landfall between Ayr and Midge Point around 1pm Queensland time (2pm AEDT), will be felt for hours before and after the centre passes.
BOM Senior forecaster Adam Blazak told news.com.au the cyclone was slow moving but was picking up speed as it barrelled towards land.
He said Hamilton Island had already been battered by winds in excess of 195km/h and this was only the start.
“It’s going to be a long and exhausting day and a very long wait,” he said.
Mr Blazak warned it could take 18 long and hellish hours for the worst of the cyclone to pass.
“It’s a quite unusual system, it’s really only starting up now,” he said.
“The wind gusts are exception already and with these destructive winds will see power lines down, trees uprooted and flying debris.
‘It’s going to be really exhausting for people living through it and in some cases it won’t be safe to venture outside until at least tomorrow”, for fear of debris flying through the air.
“A category four can range from 225km/h to 280km/h.
“At 145km/h we can expect branches down, as the wind speed doubles so does the damage”, he warned, with the heavily populated area expected to cause a lot of damage.

Adelaide: Early-season cold spell not seen for a century
«

Ben Domensino, Thursday June 1, 2017 - 09:51 EST
Adelaide is on track to endure a run of cold mornings not seen this early in the season since 1889.
The state capital city's chilly transition into winter comes amid a string of cold and frosty mornings across South Australia this week.
Clear skies, light winds and a cold air mass underneath a strong high pressure system are responsible for the run of below-average minimums.
The coldest place in South Australia this morning was Yunta in the North East Pastoral District, where the mercury dropped to -4.7 degrees shortly after 7am. This was the coldest June morning in five years.
Further south, Renmark was cold enough for severe frost this morning as the temperature reached -3.2 degrees. This was its coldest minimum this early in the season for 11 years.
Adelaide reached a low of 2.9 degrees in the city this morning as frost crept into some of the outer suburbs. This was Adelaide's second consecutive morning below five degrees and this run could be extended to five by Sunday.
If Adelaide drops below five degrees for five consecutive mornings this week as forecast, it will be the city's coldest spell this early in the season for 128 years.
The last time Adelaide recorded five mornings in a row below five degrees was during August 2014.
Minimum temperatures will rise at the start of next week as the stubborn frost-producing high finally gives way to a frontal system.

delaide: record cold start to winter
Ben Domensino, Monday June 5, 2017 - 12:40 EST
Adelaide has ended a record-breaking string of cold mornings by managing to stay above five degrees.
While the city's low of 5.1 degrees this morning was three below average for June, it was Adelaide's first morning above three degrees since the start of winter.
Adelaide's four consecutive mornings below three degrees between Thursday and Sunday last week was the coldest spell since 1982 and the coldest on record this early in the year. This is quite an impressive feat, with data available for the last 130 years.
Sunday also marked the fifth consecutive morning below five degrees, which hasn't happened this early in the year for more than a century.
The unmistakably wintry change of seasons in Adelaide has also been felt across many areas in southern, central and eastern Australia. Multiple states and territories have endured a run of frosty mornings and crisp, clear days.
This fittingly-timed period of chilly weather was caused by a slow-moving high pressure system centred over the nation's southeast in recent days.
Frost will remain widespread each morning this week as high pressure systems remain a dominant feature over southern Australia.
Adelaide is forecast to enjoy a near-average minimum of seven degrees tomorrow morning, before dropping back to a nippy three degrees on Wednesday.

The mercury in the NSW town, close to the Murray River, sank to -5.6C early on Sunday morning — that’s the coldest it’s been for 110 years.
It was even more icy further north as winter records were broken across NSW and Victoria — some towns recorded their coldest morning ever.
It’s so freezing, the NSW Fire and Rescue Service has been forced to warn people not to fire up barbecues indoors.
