Heard you had a sprinkle down there. Only light rain at
Katherine tonight. Last two nights we have had heavy rain and thunderstorms. Very different to the Riverland.
Check your emails I sent you some pics of the Arnhem Highway flooded.

Not got anywhere South of Nhill so Soth West Victoria and South East South Australia totally missed out so far.
Impressed with those photos that were flicked on to me Kumunara. Huge areas of water. Love to see areas after rain across South Aussie. Don't know if you saw that movie last week on Youtube of the creek coming up to flood, it was a ripper going from nothing to trees and mud barriers washed downstream. That was different again - NSW though.

Yep, we had a day of soft rain. I measured 21.5mm this morning. It is very wet outside. Our tally for the year is 126mm so far, half of our annual rainfall.(We lie just 2km outside the Goyder Line which denotes the 250mm/10inches pa rainfall).
There are still some clouds about but most likely only empty returns..:-)))

Half your luck. It's still dry in southern suburbs... looking forward to a few drops.
Unfortunately BOM radar shows only very light falls south of
Burra. Perhaps in the morning...

I just got a phone call from a Salisbury company I do work for asking if I want to cancel today's work due to the rain.
What rain? says I, it's bone dry at Reynella at the moment. 9-00am

Near
Monash Bypass, (near Big
Orange)
Ended up with 3mm over night and about 1mm today.
So all up so far 24mm Here.
We normally miss out at times it's pouring down at work (Jury Road Factory) and I get to the Ford Dealers and the road is dry all the way
home.
Cheers Jeff M. (SA)
