Same here Mags.
Now tonight there are forecasting very strong winds again through the night and tomorrow morning.
Think then, it is supposed to be brighter but colder again after Sunday.

Re: Let's talk about the Weather.
The Queensland floods may have killed over 300000 head of cattle with losses in the flooded areas of between 60 and 100%. More losses are expected as the surviving cattle are surrounded by mud and some are too weak to even walk to fodder drops nearby. Rescue teams cannot reach these areas yet.Meanwhile I received 30mm of rain in half an hour yesterday as two thunderstorms swept through. The noise was horrendous - apparently due to cold air trapped under a warmer layer amplifying the sound - interestingly it it is also a condition not normally conducive to thunderstorms according to BOM.
The storms arrived in Sydney later and as usual in the Sydney basin were far more severe:
More than 47mm fell in 30 minutes at Guildford in Sydney's west, causing severe flash flooding while Auburn was drenched by 41mm and Parramatta by 38mm.
In Baulkham Hills, in Sydney's north-west, 34mm fell in 30 minutes.
About 45,000 homes across Sydney had lost power lost power at the height of the storm, with about 7,500 people still without power this morning, mainly in the Parramatta region and Hills district.
