Thread: It's actually raining!

Sorry to hear that Nm, no 1 son home with the flu got onto some weather channel thing before, we are predicted rain till saturday, maybe some will blow up your way,

Don't need too much more ,all my macca trees have flowered and same with mangos , don't want too much moisture on them or the will fall off.

Had another 28 mls since 0900, not bad for 3 1/2 hours.

Hi JohnE, how's your missus going?

The other side of the valley update, have had a bit more 35 mls since this morning, still p...ssing down, drizzle hard rain and drizzle.


GQ, after a week, of being shown various body parts, with the exclamation, 'found another bruise', she went back to work this afternoon,
took the stitches out of her head on saturday , the 'I don't know day it is ' vagueness, stopped on friday.
Went into town to see the car on thursday, it went on wednesday to the big nrma place at newcastle, that was a quick assessment. Didn't even get a photo.
Other than that seems ok, I still won't let her drive, so I opted out of the 2 week nrma car loan for now.

Took her to work earlier, i didn't realise how much rain you were getting up there, the stormwater channels in the park were over flowing, the same down at Ballina, the gold driving range is under water. and didn't have the camera with me.

john

well, all that wet stuff you guys have copped over the last couple of days has finally reached up here,,,

The storm has passed here now.
Dumped 210 mls, blew down trees and generally made a mess.

Batten down, Pedro!

GQ

No rain here, but the wind generator is earning its keep! And the wind is sucking out of the soil most of the 6mm we got the other day!

John

Sorry to hear that Jd , spoke to a mate in wagga today and he said the same dry and windy.
looks like it is fining up here, a few clouds and lots of wind.

too bad you couldn't have some of the stuff we got, just a little too much for the short time. the ground needed a good long soak not a quick one.

Which is great since I have the radiator out in the driveway

I planned to fix the radiator leak this morning and the swivel hub leak this afternoon.

So far all I have done is the radiator out and I can't find the leak for sure

The rain is welcome otherwise.

I need a great big shed.
