About this product

The Bureau is currently developing a nation-wide automated thunderstorm/lightning/strong wind verification system. As an interim measure, this page has been initiated, as a fore-runner to the final product, to deliver the manually-produced storm confirmations currently available for some of the major population centres in New South Wales, Queensland and Western Australia.
Storm confirmation for areas, States and Territories not covered by this product are still available by contacting the relevant Bureau office in the State concerned. Please note that there will be a charge for this service (Minimum fee $22). Until further advised, subscribers can avoid these additional charges by quoting their allocated Registered User name when requesting reports for areas beyond the coverage of this service. See the list above for contact details.
