Rain

Im ready mate, will make a pleasant change going out sandbagging, rather than fire fighting !
Not to mention it will make the weeds grow, you beauty, more work LOL

Cheers Pesty

Didnt down in the big smoke so they say,
Mid North, Blyth, outside thermometre, under the landing in the shade was 44 about 4pm, 45.9 same time yesterday.

Cheers Pesty

i think your thermometer might be stuffed or it is being influenced by other sources
clare didnt get anywhere near that...nor did snowtown...even pirie only got to mid thirties

Hi Richard

The thermometre was new at xmas, and it matches the old mercury one, Clare regularly has temps of up to 7-8 deg lower to us and Pirie is influenced by its proximity to the water, sometimes its similar to us and others its cooler, depending which way the wind is blowing.
I dont have any figures for snowtown, but it would have been the hottest out of the 3 you mention.
Besides that I was out working in it all day and it was hot, despite what any thermometre says.

Cheers Pesty

Pesty,
my thermometer that is also a good one under the back pergola area out of well away from the sun was 41. I am in WIlliamstown (Barossa). I have no doubt you had 44.

Hi Toy,

Yes I have lived here for near 20 years and and I know when its hot, and had no doubt that my thermometre is close to accurate, hot arid plains here this time of year.
Know williamstown well was born and lived for 30 odd years at Forreston, and still regularly travel that way to mum and dads who are still there.
Will have to catch up one day and chew over some 4wd fat!

Cheers Pesty

This one changes every day but has been consistant the last few showing a solid band to Victoria. Looks stronger today. Love to be in the Flinders with two weeks supplies wxmaps.org/pix/prec7.html I sent the addy to Willem the other day when the Flinders looked like copping it for the first time in a while...

Not really. Lake Eyre needs big rain in the Gulf country and western QLD to fill well.
