I hear you guy's talking of all the rain...we live in a country with such contrasting weather.... yesterday driving between Parkes and Forbes I encountered a raging dust storm....not a sign of any rain...it's just so dry here...
We were up till 4.30 this morning lifting stock at our printing business, just in case. That was after 2 inches of water flowed into our garage and wet all the carpets downstairs.
Hope that worked out well Paul.. crazy winds on the coast .. looks like we have been carpet bombed.. highway exit sign bent to the ground .. all the blocks still in ground .. but the mounting poles bent to 45+.. retaining walls on cars .. and the odd power pole blown over ....Had a neibour down the street ask If we'd seen any garden sheds
(he lost three.).. weird at 3.30 this morning it was a pretty clear sky.
Been pelting down all afternoon out here. Same at school in Midland after lunch. It had better keep coming as well. Hey Trevor don't they say the conception rate climbs every time there is a blackout? Makes you wonder why people are in such a hurry to buy big TV's .

There's an old song called "It's Better In The Dark" look it up, says it all.
Yes everythings OK at work Graham. The flood peak at noon yesterday was well below the levee wall. We've done this a number of times, when flood forecasts panic people. I suppose they have to err or the side of caution. Our carpets at home downstairs are still soaked and starting to pong. I was hoping for a break in the weather and now there is wind warning, and more damn showers. I wonder how Glen's observing shed fared in all this?
Wow so much wet weather everywhere except where i am its so dry here But on a positive note the sky was awsome last night Jupiter was just sparkling bright I havnt had a look at Jupiter for a while what a giant beauty it is
