Rain shadows are a fascinating effect.

I know that while the Shoalhaven district on the NSW South Coast has better rainfalls than most places west of the Ranges, there were times when our grass had all browned off. But at the same time the little town of Berry less than 20 km away was almost always green.

John perhaps you're in a rain shadow and not even getting the minimal rain of your neighbours?

After a near 10 year drought in Central Vic and a 2 year break with some floods , we are now again having the dry est autumn and early winter for ages ...

My dams are near dry and the rain threatens but does not fall ..
People are now hauling water for there tanks for drinking and we are one month into winter

Farmers that I do work for are praying for rain to enable the crops to kick off .... but it is not looking good atm ...

go figure ?
The dam weather if bloody fickled

Sorry to bump ,

but has anyone been noticing the Chem trail activity in the sky's above ?
We have had days where the sky's are full of trails from weather geo engineering from very large Jets ...

not good guys .... ( look up Chemtrails on google )

Well, you learn something every day - never heard of Chemtrails until now.

Geez we have had some rain up here,and more to come over the weekend.Must be one of the wettest years for a while.But they say a drought is coming.

And on the farm,south west Qld,it has been hosing down.Hundred and twenty- fivemm over easter was excellent.Forty mm two months before was also good.Twenty-fivemm four weeks after Easter was also good.Fortymm three weeks ago was good.

Feel your pain,drought is not much fun.

They are supposedly used as Geo Engineering the weather for the better ? ... but lots of people think they are the cause of some of the weird weather we seem to be having , on and off ?

Chemtrails Awareness
21 July 2013 ? North Myrtle Beach, SC, United States ?

Please stop sharing the Ed Snowden piece on Chemtrails. The original was picked up by various "alternative" news outlets. If you read their source for the article, it goes back to a SATIRE site. I have the link to the original source, which I will post below. Look at the "about" section. Please stop spreading disinfo!!

Snigger..........

Just as well it is a free world ? Please use pms not the Boards , if you want to call me out on anything? ..
Those were just the first 2 that searched as examples ... sorry if they were not the best or the most current .
May I ask why you call it dis info ?

Do you believe having aluminum and many other nasty things rain down on us that poisons our trees and waters is ok ?

May I ask if you actually think chemtrails are a fact ?

Sorry just asking as Chemtrails are proposed to be weather modification ...
( back on topic)to avoid droughts ect ect

Not just me. The Talbragar remains almost dry, as it has for most of this year - and that means that all the catchment is very short on rainfall as well.

It sounds a bit like Millstream where my farm is. It can be raining big time in Ravenshoe 10km away and not a drop here. This is normally what happens early season, then the storms start to come in from the west and the first few stop about 5km than my farm further west. All very frustrating as we seem to be the dry patch between the two!! I have actually seen the rain in a curtain just past my farm slashing it down and we never got a drop.
When the storms set in though we get the rain, but when you need it to rain badly it can be very frustrating.
