Canadian and US coins

[kanjoe07]

One of my best friends spent 6 months studying in Seattle followed by another 3 months road tripping across the states. Throughout those 9 months, she strived to get every state quarter for me as my 'souvenir'. She was five short but then another close friend got two more, so I'm three short. Probably end up buying them from ebay. Also got a 1979 Sacagewea dollar and a Presidential dollar.

Also have a selection of coloured Canadian quarters as well from the 2nd friend I mentioned's trip to Canada and US over the last Xmas period.

This is our weather warning :ok:

For people in parts of WA southwest of a line from Kalbarri to Paynes Find to Hyden to Walpole. This includes people in, near or between the following towns: Northampton, Geraldton, Jurien Bay, Dalwallinu, York, Narrogin, Bunbury, Busselton, Bridgetown, Margaret River, Mandurah and the Perth Metropolitan area.

Weather Situation

At 3:30pm a cold front lies just off the west coast with an associated deep low to the south of the state. The front will move across the region this afternoon and evening and the deep low will move towards the southern coastline towards sunrise on Saturday.

The passage of the front this afternoon and evening is likely to result in WIDESPREAD DAMAGING WINDS to 110 kilometres per hour that could result in DAMAGE TO HOMES AND PROPERTY over an area west of a line Kalbarri to Dalwallinu to York to Bunbury extending to west of a line Kalbarri to Paynes Find to Hyden to Bunbury in the evening. This system is likely to produce high sustained winds and frequent squalls with showers and thunderstorms.



Conditions are expected to ease towards midnight as the front moves inland and weakens but as the deep low approaches the south coast, showers and thunderstorms are again likely to produce WIDESPREAD DAMAGING WINDS to 110 kilometres per hour that could result in DAMAGE TO HOMES AND PROPERTY over an area southwest of a line Gingin to York to Walpole between 4:00am and 10:00am.



Small hail is also possible with thunderstorms.



Large swells will lead to DANGEROUS SURF CONDITIONS which could cause significant beach erosion along the west coast south of Kalbarri.

A wind gust of 98 kilometres per hour has been reported from Bickley at 2:03pm.

A wind gust of 98 kilometres per hour has been reported from Cape Leeuwin at 8:35am.

A wind gust of 96 kilometres per hour has been reported from Rottnest Island at 10:48am
