The FIL says we've had almost a metre in the last 10 days.
That's his reading mate, but I know we've had heaps. ;D

Hairs

Hasn't rain here since early January, The Clarence Valley.
Ok, a few showers here and there, but nothing to get excited about.
Watched LandLine today, A Dry Debate
Hmmm, and I thought it was dry here, I had heard that west of the range farmers had been struggling, A bloke I know has completely de-stocked near Tamworth and have heard stories of other doing the same.
And the amount of cattle that are being agisted between Grafton & Lawrence is noticeable in the paddocks.
Paddocks that have barely any cattle on them are full.
The grass in our 2 acre paddock is dead, we hand feed our old boy(He is a 39 year old stock horse), haven't mowed since before Christmas.
Our thoughts are with all those on the land that are again struggling to stay on the land.
You don't use magic to disappear, all you need is a 4wd & a Swag ;)

Been pi$$in down hear all day. My guess would be 200 mm +/-

All men dream but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes to make it possible.

We had about 5 hrs of drizzle. My tanks are full and the new turf watered for a few days at least.  :cup:

Wow That is awesome. I think we might do the same over the next few days but 400 in 24 is a lot of water. Are you still on land or floating  ;D


G'day Steve.


Are you guys getting another cyclone over there?

HAHAHA - We have a wise cracker!  ;D ;D

Rain, folk in SA and Vic haven't seen 'rain' in months.... I think I would have to go back to October to find a decent rainfall event for our area. Whilst the towns Weather Station says we had some rain in December and January, it actually missed the town, and really only landed on the weather station which is about 7 - 8kms away...

Yesterday, forecasts had predicted we could get 40 - 60mm on Thursday / Friday, but today that was revised down to 5 - 10mm, and by tomorrow, any chance of rain will most likely evaporated - literally.

We hit 40 today, and forecast is for 43 tomorrow, so if you like it hot and dry - this is the best place in the country!
