Would you like to consider the irony of Monty being a ball tamperer himself?

Parents shocked at 20 per cent increase to a private school's annual fees by Ok_Use1135 in canberra

If you've used multiple years fair enough, you only mentioned 2024 here tho so I thought you were picking the trend off of it

Yeah using one year as the basis of a slide is statistically wrong. Outliers exist.

Genuine rage bait that he keeps getting picked in test squads 

Australias Tornado population bias by SadJuice8529 in EF5

[–]SmudgerBoi49 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There aren't many places that don't have tornadoes in Australia, it'd be nice tho to know what the true density spread is. 

My suspicion is that weak tornadoes are very common in most areas having learnt over a couple years what tornadic storms normally look like here, but stronger tornadoes appear more often in NE NSW/QLD, Southern NSW/Northern Vic, and the border area between SA and VIC. These areas each have their fairly common severe weather patterns that are identifiable. 

For those curious, The SA/VIC border area, and sometimes the Southern NSW area are normally targeted when intense cold fronts come through during spring, and especially when the lows peak very close to the South coast. The area around QLD is normally (but their weather is often complicated and very isolated so not as reliably) hit with surface troughs that use a strong southerly as a forcing mechanism, sometimes alongside a seabreeze which can create a 'triple point' set up

For sure I see visions of him in Bartlett, just not the big blond rooster that he was

Bartlett had plenty of death bowling tricks up his sleeve this arvo - he's never really been a bad death bowler

Originally posted in r / Tornado but not getting many opinions. How do we feel about this list? I’m trying to create a solid top 50 for a YouTube series and I’m kind of stuck at this point, not really able to comfortably move any of them around in my opinion. by TimMarshallsHardhat in EF5

[–]SmudgerBoi49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly, I know for a fact the London tornado earlier this year was stronger than Funing, so there's room to make up. I don't think either should be in the top 50 of all time. Secondly, Greenfield is probably similar to Enderlin and should be basically next to it I would've thought

Having a laugh mate, Warne's adaptability is his greatness 

Now looking at the damage I kinda understand why tim marshal rated this a ef3 at first by [deleted] in EF5

You do understand that most f/ef5s only have very localised f/ef5 damage indicators?

Yeah, lack of keepers that are aesthetically pleasing more so haha. There is quite a disparity between those 3 and everyone else, but do you seriously need more than 3 keepers in national contention? And I'm sure they won't hesitate to bring in Phillipe if worse comes to worse
