Wouldn't that be wonderful. I always feel guilty when it buckets down in the tropics while the rest of the country down south fries and burns. In the Kimberleys the sea turns red as the floods gush to the sea. Quite a sight over Roebuck Bay when the turquoise water is marbled by the white mud, blended with the red run off.
The late news has just shown some terrifying pictures of NSW flooding and strandings on river crossings.
It's a big country. Cheers Granny

If it rains in Ceduna it may rain across the state. Lived there 4 years at the start of the 4 year drought. All the farmers took their skills to Roxby.
Here's hoping for a decent winter rain to put things back on a level playing field. Victoria may then get some too. The whole state's a dust bowl, except along the coast.
My eldest daughter lives at Edithburgh where it's windy all the time, but doesn't rain as much as you'd think. The wind blows it away over to Adelaide. That's why there's a wind farm there. LOL.
If it's hot in Pirie it's usually a little warmer in the ranges, but cold at nights.
Good luck Dave. Cheers Granny

yeah trouble is that the weather is sweeping across from the west and then the low that has been battering coffs harbour is pushing the front southwards, away from us, adelaide is getting a couple of drops but it is falling too far south for us, nevermind we will get some one day!!! sighhhh!!!
