Re: Warm to hot with possible showers and storms later: January 19-2?

27 mm so far, total when it's finished will be interesting, too hard to guess at this stage. For what it is worth as I do not take a great deal of credence in the rainfall rate but the Davis has 250mms/h as a maximum, it sure was HEAVY!

With a BOM forecast range for rain here tomorrow of 10 - 50 mm it certainly is a wait and see what happens situation.

Happy with 9.2 mm of light soaking rain, no need for watering today. I didn't water last night either as I was hopeful for enough rain to do the job, which eventuated.

Re: Troughs with showers/ storms 11 Jan - ?

Storm rapidly developing as it approaches here, just may get get a decent fall of rain. Only 1.8mm today so should pass that easily as the radar is showing red.

Re: Vic - potential rain in the east from an inland low 5-8/1/22

2.6mm to start the day off, the potential I feel is there for more widespread rain today. Storms? Happy to do without any if they were to be as severe as some had yesterday.

It's been absolutely beautiful conditions down here on the island.

That it seems in the forecast for the coming week. Already above the November average after yesterday's effort.

Re: Slow moving trough with rain and storms: November 3-8

Family sending me pics of my old area in North Dandenong. Absolutelt flash flooded. Onetahuti, i hope you're ok? All fine here thanks. The street was just a sheet of rushing water at the height of the deluge, 36mm on the Davis consol, will check manual gauges when it stops which it just about has.

Re: Trough and Rain Event: Sept 28 - Oct 1

Collecting the mail today I noticed that the ants are swarming around a top of the brickwork, looks like they are putting a wager on that next day or two are going to be wet. Are they going to collect is the question that will be answered in due course.

Re: Early spring warm wave followed by rain: September 1-5

Similar to Stevco I had doubts about my Davis showing 45mm even though I had 'tweaked' it recently as the Melbourne Water site around 2 kms away had 36mm. (I had forgotten to empty my manual gauges.) However checking local PWSs they had around 40 - 46mm so I will accept what mine said. A great fall,...
