Cool Video! Waterfalls flow upwards in extreme winds

[Ringel05]

Well, not really flowing up, the spray is though.

Winds battering southern Australia over the last 24 hours have been so strong that spray from waterfalls south of Sydney has billowed up into the air.

Nearly a month's worth of rain has fallen on the city in 24 hours, and wind speeds have reached 120km/h (75mph).

The extreme weather has meant a rough ride on the city's ferries, and a high surf warning has been issued with waves expected to reach 5m (16ft).

Wish I could see it...I'm on dial-up

 

[Tank]

Cool

Wish I could see it...I'm on dial-up

I'll send the 8mm tape reel via carrier pigeon.

Yeah, probably get to see it a lot quicker. Hopefully, though, this is going to change soon, next week perhaps. Just found out I qualify for Obama's Recovery Act deal to provide high speed Internet to rural areas. The satellite company is now offering a deal, thanks to government funding, for free equipment, free installation, and 39.00/month for life with just a 1 year contract. Don't reckon' I'll find a better deal. Have to go with satellite because Century Link, our Internet/Phone provider, will not provide broadband here.

 

[Mr.Owl]

That is friggin amazing!

 

[Dr Grump]

And it's freezing here too!

 

[percysunshine]

Cool.

Gravity is going to win, eventually.

 

[Ringel05]

This is still one of the coolest thinks I've seen.

 

[strollingbones]

hmmm i am not sure if its one of the coolest things....but hey....whatever floats your boat

 

[Mr. H.]

To bad they don't have these in Yosemite. Innocent lives could have been saved.

How much could it possibly cost for every poster to chip in and lease a jet to fly to Hawaii and watch it for real?

Can't be that much.

Cheaper flight than the Great Ocean Highway.

North of Hilo.

Yeah but why Hawaii?

 

[Mr. H.]

Why is percy sunshine
Full of so much poo
Head as soft as chocolate
and so satirical too...

6-5-7-7 is not an Haiku...Mr. H.

 

[Tank]

My porch mister can do the same thing

 

[Mr. H.]

Your porch mister composes Haiku?

My daughter has that problem as well. They live out on my ranch in a rual area. I didn't know dial up could prevent you from watching. I do remember some times I would download the video to my desk top, watch it, then discard it. Would that help?
