🙏 Thankyou WA ✌️
This is a simple short appreciation post from us to you.
West Weather Watchers started way back in '99 when it was called WA Weather group. A group of crew who went chasing on the weekend, came together once a month and plugged their cameras and video recorders into the TV, showing like minded weather enthusiasts the dramatic, and sometimes not that dramatic storms they had chased around the state.
Moving onto a forum, then onto FB/Twitter, we developed a team and reported primarily severe warned storms and warnings from around the state when we had time. Changing the name to West Weather Watchers late 2024, then people moved, interests changed, and families were had, meaning that I was left to run this by myself.
Late last year we got hacked and had to start all over again after loosing 25k of friends - now I have the family, with a 3 year old and a newborn, and we are more passionate than ever to bring you as much quality information as possible through the bottle feeds and sleepless nights.
We want to thank you WA for your continued support and content you supply from around this brilliant state we all live in.
Cheers Tom. ✌️
The mouse population in parts of wa is out of hand @APVMA seems to not have an interest in doing anything about an emergency permit for us. All knowing full well that 25 g active mouse bait is not effective. The numbers we have are the worst I’ve seen.

If you were wondering why directing diesel to regional Australia is in the national interest:
All the operations behind the astounding productivity growth in ag - are the things that have stopped with the parked up tractors right now.
@eyres_N@AmberB_C@ipaddockapps Some do, most don’t. The additional noncash benefits from lupins, or any legumes, have always been well understood but dificult to value due to may vagaries. On my somewhat longer time on this planet, their value has decreased markedly over time. 2026/27 that may be different.
Feeling the pressure of whats going on around you? Recon your community could do with a quick catch up before we launch into it for another year and could do with an informal gathering?

@hirschirsch@AmberB_C Last few days seeing a lot of Fuel trucks driving on regional roads late at night, I tip my hat to these fuel truck drivers working through the backlog
@andrewdunx I totally agree the values have peaked, until the next rise which hopefully is a little time away. The depth of buyer isn’t there. But the dips in price you have seen have not been to the same magnitude as original tweet I am sure. Maybe-10% off peak? Any comment?
