A couple of weeks ago on the way to work (car pooling with my two sons) we saw the same phenomenon Bernard describes - exactly like the Caboolture pictures... Maybe this is more common than we think.

In both cases I was on my way to the Balaklava Gliding Club around 9:00 am. The roll cloud moved from west to east and dispersed approx.10 km inland. There are also several places in the Middle East where roll clouds are encountered on a regular basis.

SUBJECT: Re: [Aus-soaring] "Morning Glory" type roll cloud at CabooltureAirfield 07-Aug-09 Yep, Saw it on the way into Brisbane early saturday morning. Very interesting! Two lines were swerling around Moreton bay, never seen the like before.

I guess Deception Bay is no Gulf of Carpentaria but it really did try hard this morning!
