A lovely 21mm overnight , it took it's time to come ashore yesterday , with the first few small scuds blowing in around 16:30 and then sitting just off the coast till just on dusk..
Scott , Our drinking water is poly tank and all good. It is drinking only...
I have 3x1000lt cubes all hooked together that I switch to in the wet season , They last a week or so and it's nice to shower in rain water when there is plenty.
The rest of the year it's creek water , great for most of the year and in some years good all through. But last year and this we have not had a build up flush and it is now fairly smelly and discoloured. Don't wash the whites lol .. Last year I carted water for a couple of weeks then we got 1700mm in December lol ..
Did have to cart back in 2010? as well , but it is only a few weeks so all good.
Stock water is creek for the most part , can use bore when it gets to low , but the pipelines don't come near our place.
Lets hope we get another couple of inches over the next day or so.
It is nice to get this rain but it would be great to see it all over the east coast , especially over the fire zones in the south.
Sorry 28 , it's not looking good for you out that far.
Cheers
