Buckets coming down in Duffy right now.

Yeah, but is there any rain with those falling buckets??

Yeah son, the buckets were hitting the ground, bouncing back up, flipping and then pouring down glorious veggie loving rain!

Yup, nothing up north again, south side and Quangers gets it all. Odd, considering the wind is blowing from the coast but the storms are coming from the northwest. I guess it’s one of those under currents that leaves you guessing where it is going to go.

FYI, not a drop in Quangers.

Innar Norf Innardated.

(Well some rain.)

BOM were a bit slow off the mark today. There were still no warnings issued when the area from Michelago south to Cooma was copping a (much needed) hammering on the radar. Even when I could hear the thunder from here in Tuggeranong and was watching the rain coming over from the Brindies, there had still been no warning issued.

Not just slow, they were going backwards at one stage. Up until around 4 they had a 20% chance of rain for rest of today. As it was actually raining and they expanded the thunderstorm coverage, they reduced it to 10%. Obviously some not all their systems are talking to each other.

Dry as a bone here

Plenty of rain down south but nothing up north?

Nuffink.

Nothing at Narrabundah.

Being serious for a moment (a temporary state that occurs between the second and third drink) I do hope that we are not leaving our children with a climate where they experience heat like this more and more frequently.

Nice prospects for punkawallahs though.

🙂 Thank you Flying Spaghetti Monster!

The temperature’s dropped by about 10 degrees in the last hour.

Innar Norf gets Nuffink.

Nothin up North 🙁

But are they likely to produce any rain????
Or just bring down branches and start bushfires?
Be careful what you wish for JB.
