I like rain as much as the next person, but when it creates a waterfall within the house that put's
Kakadu to shame in the wet season, one does get a little bit grumpy the third time around in two days.
I might add that Damn Dog is not happy with this turn of events.
As I write this the
water is pouring in again and I can't hear what I'm thinking!
Hope you all are getting a bit of moisture around the country, particularly the farming fellas.
Regards
Kim

Hope you get through OK Kim. I just looked at the news link on this site and the top story is predicting snow for the high country tomorrow. What a crazy summer thus far. Good luck and hang in there. Fred.

Similar story a couple of weeks ago...
We had a rather big blow a moth or two ago that lifted a couple of gal iron roof panel, actually bending them open (roof not really visible from ground level, very flat roof and up on a
hill). a couple of weeks ago we had a bit of rain (20-30mm or so). I came home to a waterfall inside the house, about two squares of ceiling sagging and/or dropped completely and 2" of
water in the house (all tiled, thank god). Took out the power by washing dust into
the junction boxes in the roof. Only blessing is it avoided all the electrical goods (tv etc).
Then we had a couple of stinking hot days just to make sure the musty/mouldy smell permeated everything......

If all adverse weather events are known as "Acts of God" then he really isn't a particularly nice character anyway, is he????

Sorry No1
I get a bit grumpy from time to time.
Damn Dog an I finished up sitting in the garage with the door opened, and came to the conclusion that's its Christmas and the clean up can start when the sun comes up again tomorrow.
Can you ring the your old mate on the Sat phone, and ask him to settle down a bit?
LOL

Kim

Member Numero Uno,
I believe Kim is a bit dyslexic and was actually talking about his DOG not the Big Guy (for whom we all have a great deal of respect and with whom you obviously feel some affinity in that you hold a similar position on this
Forum).

It's only a guess, but have you thought about getting the roof fixed? Just trying to think outside the circle.

Morning Kim
Sorry to hear of the plight of yourself and so many others down south. Here in
Tamworth we need lots of the wet stuff but please not that b.............y heavy. All I'm asking "Hughie" for is about 40mm today and a bit of follow up in a week or so.
We've had scattered storms for the past few weeks and I've done
well in town but was out past
Quirindi yesterday (about 50k's away) and the paddocks are still dry and brown.
HE is just letting all of us know who is really in charge of the planet.
Cheers

Hi John, I am in the Hunter, but we have a property out of Coonabarabran, and just saw on the latest NSW weather observations page that they had 141 mm last 24 hrs. Did you get any of that. Geez, that'd put a bit of moisture into the Castlereagh, which has been pretty dry for years. Plenty of rain all over the west and the slopes and plains by the look of it last 24 hrs.
Cheers from Fred.

G'day Fred
No mate - did not get lots here - there's about 25mm in the gauge now since last night and it's still passing showers so hope for more. And you are right - I was out Coona/Baradine way a couple of weeks ago and it was dry. Poor old castlereagh will look funny with
water on top for a change LOL

I just heard about some people who had just finished cleaning up from the flooding on Thursday only to have a fire that set off the sprinkler system. Some people just can't win.
