 Brief Summary of Event

 

20th January 2006
A low pressure trough deepened dramatically over SA, causing many squally storms over eastern Eyre Peninsula, Yorke peninsula, the Mid North, Adelaide, and the Mallee. 

The low pulled in warm, moist air along the eastern flank of a developing cold front, with much colder air behind.

29th January 2006
A long-lived line of thunderstorms developed over the northern outskirts of Adelaide around midnight on the 19th and moved slowly southwards over the metro area. 

The storms developed in the moist northerlies along a low pressure trough, with help from a sharp upper low that really kicked them off! 

It was almost a non-stop show of lightning over the city from midnight to 4am on the morning of the 20th.
