- southerly has nailed us to the cross yet again. We just cant seem to escape it this summer on potential storm days.
Try living out here in C Gippsland, Bass Straight seabreaze storm killing is a daily event from Nov onwards.
27.5C here today, muggier I thought than yesterday yet delivered nil here at Maffra. Was fair rain in Traralgon and Sale around midday (circa 3-6mm) but have lost faith in seeing a storm here today - no storm here for at least a week (most of you wouldnt have called that one a storm either , but out here if I see lighting and hear thunder its a "storrm"). Its a tough job being a storm watcher when you live in Maffra, they only happen on average 12 times/year and you cant just hop in a car and head N to chase like you can in Melbourne. Gripe gripe grizzle.
[edit] - just scanned the models for rain out this way next 5-8 days, most show little rain for here , again grump grizzle etc. Shouldnt whinge because it IS February, but is seems to be such a waste of La Nina opportunity out this way. (Probably fueled by simple human jealousy).
