Main event in NSW is the rain, and, close to the coast, wind.
Just here, today we have quite a strong wind, but no signs of rain, which isn't supposed to be here until late Sunday/Monday. Forecast at present is 35 - 95+mm. We've only had half a millimetre since this time last month, so things are getting a bit dry.
the sting in the tail is just reaching Bribie now...
I hope you get some rain, JD. It bemuses me how quickly moisture disappears from the soil.Quote:

Getting a bit breezy here now, but no worse than we've had without a cyclone. I'm expecting the wind to increase, but not catastrophically.
85 mm in the inaccurate gauge overnight, a couple of pot plants bloen over.
Still no rain, but the wind is still going, and a few bits of rain showing up on the radar not too far away.
Our area copped a bit of a flogging, overnight. 144mm and pretty strong winds. My 1000 litre fire tank, which I had put 300 litres in, moved about 2 metres. We have a lot of smaller branches down, near the house. I haven't been down the paddocks yet, as it's still heavy rain and I'm soft.
No power. Genny been earning her keep for a day or two, now. [thumbsupbig]
All gone, everything's a bit damp but calm with no rain. Can't report on rainfall as the gauge has gone to god.
Still lots of rain here, with a fair, old breeze overnight. Lost a few, bigger branches near the house. (I'm still soft!)[smilebigeye]Quote:

Edit: According to my Chief Statistician, we have received 300mm since 0600 yesterday to 0630 today and counting.
