Showers roll through parts of Sydney during the afternoon of September 20

Yesterday afternoon saw showers roll through parts of Sydney, despite forecasts not predicting any rain. While no rainfall recording was made at the Airport there were definitely a few drops in the air.

I headed out to La Perouse in the city's south east to monitor the progress of the shower activity and took a few shots.

There were hardly any drops of rain at La Perouse but there was a strong westerly wind blowing. I almost lost my hat at one point. Sydney Airport recorded gusts up to 74km/h while the station at Kurnell had gusts of 83km/h, which was probably more indicative of the wind speed at La Perouse.
