A wet day for us
« on: November 04, 2015, 02:17:26 PM »
20 mm of rain overnight in our back yard and it's been raining on and off most of today.

Our front yard from a recent downpour about 10 minutes ago. Should have left the cover off the bike and got it washed in readiness for Saturdays RTE at Ardrossan.

Adelaide got just 10mm yesterday, but we were hoping for around 25mm.

Forecast for today is 8-25mm, and we've had noting yet, but the radar looks ominous for later thisarvo.  :thumb

Though we can't see the lightening we've had thunder most of the day as well. Heather went down to the rain gauge about half an hour ago and another 16mm since about 10am this morning.

We went to Bell on the northern Darling Downs yesterday.  Bunya Mtns in background.  Rained a few days ago, but now dry enough to harvest the wheat.   :wht11
