I've edited some of the footage from a 3 day documentation of the severe weather event from 3rd to 5th of September. We concentrated on the North East areas of Victoria, (South East Australia).

'My Brother and I Intercepted the major storm that released the massive rainfall on the Saturday the 4th of September, in the North East region of Victoria. Filmed Up on Apex Lookout [600m above sea level] in Bright Victoria, Australia. Surrounding Alpine areas recorded 135km/h / 84Mph wind gusts from this storm.'

Part III coming soon, Filmed 2 hours after the Storm Intercept. Trees and Debris washed down Ovens River. Myrtleford and Eurobin flood waters, flooded roads and much more.

On this side of the Great Divide ( and 500 miles further NE ) we had sunshine, but did not miss the gale force winds.

In this clip winds are 60-80 Mph.

At around the 1:25m mark you can see a stronger gust

Wow, that is some insane wind on that lake. I'd love to try to sail in that!
