What's more current than the weather?

I presume you are referring to this:

The extreme heat in central Australia saw the weather bureau add new colours to its forecast maps yesterday:

deep purple for 50 degrees Celsius to 52 degrees Celsius; and
magenta for 52 degrees Celsius to 54 degrees Celsius.

Yesterday, the bureau's forecast maps for Sunday and Monday showed a deep purple area over the South Australian outback.

However, those forecasts have been revised today, with forecast temperatures no longer hitting the purple range.

About half-way up the west coast, the town of Winslow is about to get grazed by a category 3 or 4 cyclone.


That's not for a day or so yet, so in the meanwhile, here's a beer tsunami after a humungous explosion at the brewery crazy dust storm complete with thunder and lightning, rain and hail (according to FB posts) that drifted out to sea.
