March total 567.5mm(Avg.186.3). the offical at Townsville Aero- 532.2mm.
Who hoo, not often I beat the offical gauge! My total puts me in the 95th%ile(544.6mm).The official average for March is now 191.1mm. Unconfirmed reports of Very isolated falls of over 1000mm for March in the Townsville burbs. Oh and one Tornado but that's for a different thread!
You're only as happy as you choose to be....I choose to be miserable!

Keep the rainfall totals coming for each month guys!!
I haven't had time to update the map below for a while but will get to it eventually!! Keep them coming, any monthly data from the start of this year if you haven't already would be fantastic!!

Just updated the map below so it should resemble your latest rainfall totals and year to date. I am missing a few people here and there, so if you have rainfall details to spare, pop them up and I can put it on the map.

Werribee rainfall
April: 35.0 mm
YTD: 130.0 mm
The rainfall map still refers to 2011 in two places, (1) the map title, and (2) above the month selector. Can this be updated to 2012 please?
