DB its Christmas cheer up, take a leaf out of Proteous' book and have a drink and chill out. Instead of bringing a fire storm, you might get a bit of Norfolk's humidity and have a ripper summer!!!droughtbreaker wrote:Humidity doesn't stop things from drying out when it is accompanied by 35-40C temps.
Getting some solid drizzle now, hopefully it can continue all night because it is desperately needed to combat the very high evaporation rates likely towards the new year.
EDIT: Drizzle is heavy now and temperature is down to 14.9C
You don't need to be patronising and aggressive Anthony. I haven't directed my posts at anyone personally so neither should you. I thought this forum didn't allow personal attacks but you have just had a go at my opinion and mocked me for it.Anthony Violi wrote:You dont mind having a whinge when it doesnt come off hey Andrew....you of all people should be grateful cos you have had much more rain than a lot of others here. You win some, you lose some, today it didnt come off. So what, its weather, that happens. We cant get our way every time. I reckon todays 8mm was the best of the year because this morning i expected zilch. If your not happy move to tassie, plenty of rain down there, mid 20s, no fire danger.
And i hope you emailed the BOm with your prediction of heatwave conditions for the rest of the summer....laughable. Just like November, after the first 2 weeks things looked dire then went absolutely mental. So take a chill pill, relax, enjoy Xmas and a few bevies, and if we get heatwaves, well it is summer so just accept it. Been happening for 4.6 Bn years, any amount of whining will not change that. So enjoy the festive season and whatever it brings.
merry xmas all!
The BOM in particular don't generally forecast storms, rainfall etc in any great details more than 3-4 days out...droughtbreaker wrote:Agree John. The thing that concerns me is the heat buildup and what is expected here towards NY. Several days in the mid 30s to low 40s for Melbourne in the model output and no sign of any storms or precipitation with it. Anyway, it is the wrong thread to discuss this but it needs to be put out there.
