Down here in SA, we have had a long rainless summer, so when we finally did get rain, it only lasted about 20 minutes, that was last week and we are still waiting for the ground to get wet.

Thank goodness I had the sense to hi-tail down to South Australia.
BTW, we start our cycle tour of the Eyre Peninsula at Lucky Bay this Wednesday. So if any other GN's pass us on this trip please stop us for a coffee.
Hi
Just sat through the scariest storm we've had for a long time .It lasted 30 min or so with wind at 128 klms per hr .
26000 without power . We now have a back yard which looks like the green waste section at the local tip but thats all the damage
Its heading up the coast now so that area is in for a battering
Hope all is ok with everyone in this area
Cheers
