How much rain have you had in your neck of the woods? We've had about 70mm this week around Lobethal & Woodside. Been chucking it down all week, with some pea-sized hail thrown in for good measure. My missus had to play netball in the pi*sing rain today.

Glad to hear it, send some over this way to the central west of NSW. We have been getting a few mm every week but not enough . My brother 50 ks to the south of Bathurst has been getting regular falls of 10 to 20 mm for the last 6 weeks or so. Creeks are just starting to run. Wyangala Dam is still only 10.1%. Has not filled in 8 years. Heres Hoping snow is forcast for tomorrow.
Cheers Pete

Brrrrrrrrrrrr it is cold. I have been doing jobs around the yard but very lethargicly...ducking in and out of the cold. Most days not over 5 degrees max. Yeah, I know. It's not Siberia but its cold enough for me old bones.....lol

Louie,

Here on the Diamantina............err, change that to Dusty Diamantina, the mornings are very, very cool, the days are clear, and just glorious, and the nights most pleasant.

Great weather for those lucky enough to be travelling out here at the moment.

What was that you said about rain, Louie? Why'd you have to spoil a beautiful day, Louie.

Total since 1/01/2008 is: 33.2mm!!!!!!!

Depressing post, Louie......lol.

Hooroo,
Bob.
Seen it all, Done it all.
Can't remember most of it.

Don't know how many mm but I fitted a 2300l tank a couple of weeks ago, (coming off the pergola) and it's almost half full.

Think I might need a bigger one lol

Love this weather

Cheers Luke
