Bloody weather

What have we done to deserve the weather we are getting at the moment? 55mm of rain since 9am plus what we got overnight, sat on the verandah watching the road and our driveway and our front yard disappear under water. The worst part is sightseers ploughing through without considering the wash caused by driving through the water is causing more damage.

I think were into our 5th or 6th day of almost constant rain here in Bundy. Oh well.

We've had just over an inch here in the last 24hr, according to BOM. Seems about right.

Tease
I've not watched any of the shows yet.
I'll have to wait and buy them on DVD.

Seems to be clear here in Cloudbourne, but lots of haze and full moon, plus a bit of wind. Skippysky also has under under a devastating jetstream (as has been the theme this record crap and record jetstreamed-in summer). So the scope will get yet another night's rest.

43.5mm here, it's still raining on and off, and the closest we've got to some moonage was a glimpse though the cloud at about 8pm.

Rain

Nearly 2 metres for the year, but who's counting? Hot and cloudy for Prince Willian though.
