What's that falling from the sky? lol

[richmondrules]

I would have missed the rain completely except that the train I was on waited 100 meters from Caufield station for about 5 minutes. I missed my connecting tram because of it. Then, as I walked in the peeing (<-- what's this? this is not what I typed lol) down rain to the tram stop, I had to listen to the Connex guy telling the people waiting on the platform that there was a signal fault (again! always a signal fault when it rains) and no train could leave until the appropriate paper work had been filled in. WTF!!!! Thanks a lot Connex. I expect no less. lol.

They said lightning struck the signal box at Caulfield. I couldn't tell the difference from their normal service  .

 1st rainfall here today for past 7 weeks and more to come  20+mm bring it on

We've had more than enough rain up here.  Finally they've reduced our water restrictions from Level 6 to 0 till the Hinze dam stops overflowing.  All this rain is making it very hard for hubby to get any work done.  Bring on the sun.

u serious 6 to zero  ???

Whats the weather like up there end June, heading to Sydney for the Tigers game then heading up there for a week, will see the storm at skilled (Robina) also.
Bring my togs or not

Yeah our dam is over 100% and just overflowing so the powers that be have relaxed our restrictions until the dam levels fall under the 100%.  We had a "wet weekend" the Australia Day long weekend, where we could wash our cars, boats, houses etc and actually put the beach showers back on.

Re swimming in June - depends on how you like cold water.  Not as cold as down south of course.  I personally find it too cold then - wouldn't swim until Sept or Oct.   We generally have about one really cold week in winter (lowest day time temperature is 15 degrees but can get quite cold at night)
