Thx Snowfall, as you can tell from the highway shot - I was not driving! The whole event was pretty awesome live too :D

136mm for me over the last week.
No temp over 15° since last Tuesday. Had to.light the Rayburn stove because there hasn't been any action from the solar hot water. Weird to have a fire going for a week at this time of the year.

Such a great system for topping up the dams, creeks and giving the gardens and forests a drink. Should make for a nice start to summer.

Not as great down here. Few spots got 50-100mm, but most was a bit of a struggle. 30mm here in Howden.

Progs look pretty dull. Maybe shower from about Thursday. Could get another east coast low in about a week and a TC on the QLD coast.

Yes, that certainly turned into a cracker of a thread! 87mm here from 9 days straight of rain - and we're at the lower end compared to many.

Back to dry - and mild to warm - for a few days, before showers return at the end of the week. This morning's WATL has most of Vic down for 15mm plus for 7th to11th. Time for a new thread.

The flood gate operating mechanisms got a good work out on Glenmaggie dam, 3 cycles from minor flood to low-end major flood releases over only 3 days! Last flood peak hit Maffra last evening. Things may almost dry out late this week and then another 1 1/2" look likely to arrive into next weekend, hopefully headed with some decent storms (next thread).

Now to see if we can get to Merimbula without buggering a tyre in the inevitable pot holes Victoria has become world famous for.
