It's been raing here constantly for the last 7 hours, and we have just got to 7mm! It's not heavy, but just enough to get wet if you stand in it long enough.

It looks like tomorrow could be the day we get a decent amount (more than 10mm).

G'day Steve.


Are you guys getting another cyclone over there?


      :cheers:

Sorry for the late reply mate. We have had a low pressure system over here the last 5 days and it's rained and rained. The Roebuck Planes are flooded and the river have cut access down South and up to Fiztroy from here.. Loving it. Been quite the last two days though so we're due for a break

According to the BOM 54mm since 3pm yesterday, the forecast suggests it's continuing for a few more hours yet tonight. Bring on the weeds.

Smarty - Just checked my gauge, 75mm since 7:00am today and 17mm last night, (thats pretty much 92mm in 24hrs) with a little bit more to come.

Our Annual Rainfall is around 250mm, so we have had 1/3rd of our annual rainfall in 2 x days.

For the last month, I have been running air conditioners trying to stay cool, now I am running pumps, pumping stormwater out of the yard and trying to keep it from going under the house!

The rain is nice for the garden, but unfortunately in this area, most crops are being harvested (almonds, wine grapes , stone fruit) and this rain is not good for them.

I would rather the water didn't get under my house, as it causes the soil to move, and then the house moves.

I'm not sure I'd go that far, but we have had close to 100mm in about 28 hrs.

The rain has now stopped, and for the sake of a lot of our fruit growers in the area, I hope it comes in windy for the next 48 hrs to dry out the trees or vines, other wise this season will turn into a disaster with disease destroying the crops at the beginning of harvest.

Raining in Canberra as I type, up until now we'd only had 10 mls for the year, not as dry as some but very dry for here.

Cheers,

Bone dry here, what has fallen from the sky today has evaporated as soon has it hit the ground.
78% humidity atm, feels like 1000% and not a breath of wind to be felt.
