It's been the wettest summer in over 20 years in many parts of the country.
And, while I prefer mud to dust, ENOUGH RAIN ALREADY![img][/img]

.....and just for something different "MORE HEAVY RAIN".
Maybe I should put an ad in the wanted section for some floaties for the bobcat.This should be called the rainy coast rather than the sunshine coast.
thanks scotty.

With the amount thats coming down the Darling river you should see it soon, best flows in 10 years, was even to much for the greedy cotton farmers to steal. At our riding/ camping area the river rose 20 foot Very Happy

We've had surplus to requirements.......
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/IDR66C.loop.shtml#skip
Most riding areas are now lakes and waterways.
I hope enough goes down the river system to wash those greedy cotton farmers away Clarkie. With a bit of luck, this weather system will give the Victorian dust a bit of a hose-down too.

You know what'll happen Dino. The rain and OMG can it rain anymore? Will wash the dirt into the river system and it'll end up out West. Then next summer we'll get it back as a dust storm. Gotta love it.
