Sorry about the confusion Andyman... I think we've got both our changes in now :) Orderinchaos 15:58, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Storm timeline - what about 23 March?[edit]

The article mentions (in lead sentence and Storm timeline section) the period 21–23 March 2010, but there is no mention anywhere of storms on 23 March - only schools being closed. However the schools were closed because of damage done the previous day. So was there a storm on the 23rd or not? If so, it should be described. If not, references to the storms themselves should be limited to 21, 22. Mitch Ames (talk) 06:35, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed - I'd only left it there because it was already there. I haven't checked but if the Bureau of Meterology reference (which is the authoritative source on the weather event) doesn't mention 23rd, drop it. (I'm supposed to be doing a maths assignment :P) Orderinchaos 08:36, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Checked, wasn't there, dropped it. Orderinchaos 08:46, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello - time line for 22/03 is out by 30 minutes. The storm hit Subiaco at 16.15 and hail started 10 minutes later. I was there at the time.

New article[edit]

The West claims the cost is edging $1b and is easily our most expensive disaster ever. Needs comparative sourcing. Orderinchaos 14:23, 24 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Another photo of the storm at Perth[edit]

I have uploaded this image

of one of the storms that went over perth on 22 March 2010. I was wondering if it could be included in the article. Signed by Barts1a Suggestions/complements? Complaints? 00:27, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
