road at the end of the street flooded at our joint, and the next street - with a car stuck in middle.

Just remember, it could always be worse

If anyone has lost a dog, I just saw it blown off a chain doing about 1100 knots @12,000ft outside...

[Jeepers Creepers]

I saw on the idiot box you guys were in for a solid blow.

Just friggin hot up here, for about 2 weeks now, friggin hot.

Last two days cracked it for a 40 something, today, we are down for 42.

Wednesday, it all goes back by about 13 or 14 degrees..... can't wait for that to happen.

Yeah, bit that way

We're not quite as hot but the humidity is sitting in the 80s, which isn't nice.

You had any rain at all, Jeeps

Our average for November is 90 mm but we only got 19 mm - & 18.5 of that was on the 1st!

[Jeepers Creepers]

No rain for Nov at all.
No rain so far for Dec.

Currently 41.7 by the weather mob, but it would be higher.
We had a 44 the other day and this would blitz that.

Bring on Wednesday when the temps drop.

The all time official hottest day out here is 42, so we should run a PB today by the end of it.

[Jeepers Creepers]

We rocked a 42.1 and then backed up that with a 42.8 degrees.

Might have to tow around to staging lanes for one last, wind up the boost and let it eat run.

[Jeepers Creepers]

ha ha ha.... 43.1.

Shit, I hope I haven't carked and i'm on my way to hell..... noooooo... I have a car to finish first.

[D4D]

ha ha ha.... 43.1.

I just put a hoody on

[Jeepers Creepers]

I just put a hoody on

We finished with a 43.5.... going down now, much cooler at  41.5

We spent the day on the water 50 klms away and it was glorious until we stepped back onto the scorched earth. Camping here for a couple of days so made a quick salad wrap and sat up in the boat to eat as 10° cooler.
Roof top tent and hammocks a wise choice tonight but may not be if the predicted storm  barrels through tomorrow.

Went for a bit drive today up to mt Useful, about 1/2 hour up the road. Stopped to boil the billy and bugger me sideways if it didn't  start snowing. I thought this was summer.

Bring it on, have 2 empty tanks and the joint is devoid of anything green, as is the countryside.
