Plenty of water down here at the moment,yesterday we had wild thunderstorms and rain.The thunderstorm lasted 8hrs(you'd think we were in the top end) and we got 7 inches of rain in 12hrs and by the look of the sky it isnt over yet.

Just heard on the news about a
Dam burst in Devenport. Is Tassie still an island or has it just become a reef?

Hey Nick
Good to see rain falling somewhere. In
Sydney we're strugging to get 1/2 an inch. Nick i intend coming to TAS next year for my 1st visit, would like to
camp most nights so I need to know the right time to come down.Also info on various tracks and anything else you may think i need to know.
Regards
Jeff
P.S. I'd prefer not to go in School Hols OR the middle of summer

Gday Jeff,couldnt reply last night as power off again with rhe storms back,this time we ONLY got another 3 inches of rain.I reacon Feb-Mar is the best time for camping down here but you never know what the weather might do.I like camping around the Nth-East and east coast,anywhere from
George Town around the coast down to
Swansea.Theres a good 4wd track from Bellingham to Tomahawk that follows the caost (on the baech alot of the way) mind you Ive never done this track yet so Im only going from what Ive read and been told.

You can I have the rotten stuff! I work at an Apricot Orchard near
Hobart, we are picking fruit in the rain so it doesn't split.
I can hear you all saying typical bloody farmer never happy. And your right.
I agree with Nick Feb/Mar is usually the best time, most stable weather. It is also a busy time for tourists, all the families go
home so the kiddies can go to school and the couples/
grey nomads arrive. The
farm I work at also has a guest house.
