I'm beginning to wish it would stop.

We have had 60mm in the last three days, 37 of which was in the gauge this morning. The Talbragar is up half a metre in the last hour and still rising rapidly, and a flood warning has been issued for the Castlereagh at Mendooran. And it is still raining.

we're on a fine day winning streak here... two fine days in a row! Only the second time it has been like this all winter IIRC. Good little frost on the ground, not cold but hell, it is better than looking at the mud underneath it all... Can't believe anyone can complain about fine weather... unbelievable really... :huh: :no2: :lol2:

Same goes here, hasn't stopped for weeks really, however the last few says have been fairly heavy. Only thing is, Central Coast catchment area is very small, so for years we have sat around 30% capacity.
When I was a young bloke I worked on the dam in question and now it makes me wonder if the engineers factored in a fill rate of only 30-35%. Could have saved a bundle on construction costs if they had.
Anyway, good to see they are getting it where they need it out west.

Same here.
Come and get the rain. Wish it would shine enough for things to dry out.

Pretty damp here too ;)

We only had an inch overnight; but the water table was already so high that it has just resulted in all the paddocks looking like lakes
