32mm here in the last 3 days. Frequent short heavy showers overnight and continuing this morning. WZ still forecasting 1-5mm days for the next week so it does look like more showers ahead.

Good spot Mareeba, nice thunderstorms roll through there in summer.

MAY: 41mm
YTD: 2410mm

47mm for the past 2 days....thats pretty much an average of an inch or so a day over the past week and gthe round is just so sloppy..

We actually are getting some sunny periods just now with the radar to the SE looking pretty clear..

Soon as the sun appeared the chookies started falling on their sides and lifting their wings to try and catch a few rays...poor gals nust be getting sick of it too..fortunately one side of my big shed is still unconcreted so at least they can still fluff up and get a dust bath which seems an essential part of their day..

Hey 28 when you mentioned doing a bit of couch surfing did you mean throug the actual couchsurfing platform or staying with friends and family..?

and $600 poorer but Dexter is looking and feeling better with his pills and antibiotics working their magic...

Friends and family. Plan to buy a van... Maybe spend as much time as I can afford hanging around beaches - kind of bring the balance back into my life after 15 years of inland living.BigGrin

Edit: Maybe travel to where it's actually raining. LOL. Just to experience it again.

Still showering 20mm this morning.

Laying in bed listening to a heavy shower through the night I realized that I've had
over 10m of rain in 16.5 months
10394mm that is 409" or 34'
It is also day 133 and I've had 108 recordings. This needed thinking about after getting up, still far to early.


Cheers

6mm here overnight. 61 so far for May.

That's impressive rainfall Bunyip, up there with the Bellenden Ker top station I'd reckon. For comparison, we've had 5764mm in that time which is very good for White Rock.

Normally I love being warm and dry in bed and listening to rain bucketing down. Last night I was woken up by heavy rain and my first thought was β€œ %@#$ more #@f rain” 😁

Lol Weary. 😁😁
Reminds me of an English friend who lived in NW WA. He'd look out the window of the morning & think oh no not another sunny day.
I feel a bit like that myself at times.

More rain overnight, 13.5mm this time. Trying to mow the yard at the moment, it looks like I'll have to do it boggy this time.

Oh I know the feeling mate Cursing

35mm yesterday and 30mm this morning. Rain every day so far for May. Not far off 4m now Cursing

Have not mowed for ages, it's long but not huge yet as nothing is really growing much.

They've got no worries about me watering my yard anytime soon Weary, it's already a swamp.

Could be better weather ahead for the weekend.
