Thread: Bit Wet in Kalgoorlie

Started to rain just after 3 this morning. Emptied 64mm out of the guage at 7am. Barely any puddles about. Just under 400mm for the month.

It's still raining here in Kal. Rained on & off all night and has virtually not stopped this morning - some reasonably heavy falls but mostly just enough so that we can hear it on the tin roof.

Forecast is for rain & possible thunderstorms for the next three or four days. Our rainwater tanks are already overflowing and the lawn & gardens are soaked, so whatever is to come will go to waste out in the street.

I'll be doing a bit out in the shed today - at least it's still pretty dry in there. Spotted a couple of leaks when I went out there last night - might be able to get up and jam a bit of silastic into those today (from the inside - buggered if I'm climbing up onto the roof today ).

Andrew,we also only received a damping down instead of the forecast rainfall. We are on tankwater,in anticpation of a decent fall to top up the tanks,once again I cleaned out the gutters.That's the third time this summer.

I wish we were getting this rain, bloody dry as a nuns nasty here.

I hope we can catch up when we pass through in a few months, make sure the weather is good too

That is now "Langtrees Guest Hotel", complete with its own upmarket restaurant - "Cecilia's on Hay".

These days, they specialize in catering for weddings and other functions .........................

Look forward to catching up Baz. Plenty of room here if you're looking for somewhere to stay while you're in the area. Can't make any guarantees about the weather though ....................

We had another 5mm this afternoon. A friend 4.4km away (direct line) had 45mm in the same time.
