How's the weather?

[Trendseeker]

Still raining. Warragamba dam is about to spill.

You guys up north are welcome to send some water down this way. We could certainly do with a decent drop!

[Rallye Sport]

We've had our first rain over here, not much, just enough to keep the dust down. Wild thunderstorms though, we've been called in a few times at work in the past couple of weeks.
Still warm, this weeks forecast is mirror image, sunny, 18-28 degree days.

Hope you Sydneysiders are prepared for some more rain this year: the BoM has just declared a La Niña watch

I want to do a burn, but so tinder dry will at least wait for a frost & light up early morning.

If any of you guys responded to my call to send some rain our way, thanks, your thoughts worked. We had 4.4mm yesterday, which is the largest single days rain in a month and fifth largest since Feb!

Mind you, the wind we had after probs undid all the good.

Still bone dry in Adelaide, my hills properties have rabbits ringbarking the young fruit trees, and chewing holes in the dripper systems, I’ve been repairing them weekly for the last couple of months.

Friggin cold in Sydney now.
Yep 10/13 degrees is cold to me.
Don’t know how people live in colder climates I dislike it much.
Least the rain has backed off finally.

I hope their forecast is accurate, I will be going onto a ten week holiday up through QLD, I'm hoping for plenty of sunshine and warmth, hotter the better for me.

Marble Bar will definitely be next year, one of the last locations on my bucket list of travelling around Australia.

Hopefully you get 'some' rain not all of it. Australia, if its not on fire its underwater. Or atleast thats how its been the past while.

Time to batten down the hatches, you east-coasters: looks like you're in for a battering from late this weekend.

Windy's rain accumulation tool shows it pretty well, too.

Nasty Northerlies over night & 18c min..... different. Stopped now & actual rain falling for the past hr. (:

[danzvtil]

Glorious rain in Adelaide today, spent yesterday spreading fertiliser to make the most of it. Came home smelling like a poultry farm though….

[HIPO]

Got 5mm, if we get similar tomorrow i'll be chucking the Mrs on the tractor, to start plowing the paddocks. (: supposed to be a couple more fronts rolling in next week.
Hay products are becoming expensive & wont get better for a while.
Zero weeds atm which is highly unusual.

[Citroënbender]

Pretty decent rain front rolling over Victoria and NSW tonight. I so miss the sound of rain on a tin roof.

[Citroënbender]

Sydney has had a good dousing in the last week. It’s been less convenient for my work but hopefully enough to penetrate the subsoils nicely.

[LG17]

-2 this morning and even now it's still cold with ice on the strong southerlies.

[HIPO]

Hoping we get our forecast rain in the next while.

I spread 2 acres of Malloo grazing oats for our ponies to nibble & fertilizer yesterday & Mrs followed up with the tractor.
