Rain has eased up again in Brissy. Clear skies today and quite warm but doesn't feel too humid. Hoping for similar weather tomorrow as we're heading to the beach

Gotta say, I cannot wait to get to Tassy and the cooler weather! Trying on thermals and breaking in hiking boots in this weather is ridiculous!

I really really do hope the rain eases soon for everybody in NSW, please stay safe everyone!

23.4mm so far today (since midnight) and counting.

The local rescue crew is rescuing a couple of people from the roof of a car in the middle of the Campbells River as I write this...

Strange country, one side is way too dry, has fires, and the other side is way too wet. You can send some of it this way; we sure could use some rain here.

Then again, maybe not; we have clear skies.

Had to get there eventually Pete.

Yesterday ended up at 30.9mm. Not much happening so far today but there's plenty of time. We have to be on the tail end of the system by now...

Well, I must say... I've actually enjoyed this bit of wet weather. I have spent most of the time pottering about in the shed. Its the tidyest and most organised it has been since we moved here 5 or so years ago. I even managed to get into tinker mode this arvo!

It looks like another wet day tomorrow so I might have to start on the obs... it could do with a clean and tidy.
