Talking A straight or a flush?!

Now here's something you don't see every day...although it's become all too common of late in Queensland.

Look at all those low pressure systems!

If you were holding a hand like that in Vegas...you'd have it made

It's definitely a flush. As in "straight down the toilet".

The annoying part for us SE Queenslanders is that the High pressure system and Low pressure system are condensing the cloud and rain over us. Just can't win

Thanks, Pete.

I'd never noticed them lining up like that before living 'up' this end of town

I guess we often only see what we need to see.
