Hope everything is fine your end,
Rain is a bit weird around the country as it's in that reverse pattern in some areas,(comes through ones and
then seems to come back in the opposite direction),

Used to love doing that when we lived in Terowie,SA,(flat country and you could see for miles and watch all
the lightning shows for hours at a time).

Today it's a bit windy and warm. Looks overcast but it the dust storm coming in from the west.
We can't seem to win!
That's what it was like around Terowie,(dry country with lots of whirly winds picking up the red dust and
throwing it around to cover everything and then it rained to make a sea of red running down the road),
Most of the deluge just penetrated the parched ground around here and today I played golf,(small shower
at the start and then the sun came out and it was a nice day).

Nothing much happened.
That BOM needs a good...................
old man with arthritis to tell them if it's gunna rain or not.
When a large front or some "bulky" smaller ones head our way some of the "old timers" here will generally just
say that most of it will probably miss us as it has happened for years ever since they put the lake in.
The are generally right as the system heads towards us and then splits and goes either side of us,(seen it
happen a number of times now),
Talked to a woman on Thursday who used to work for the BOM and she said that even with all the technology
and information available a lot of the time it's still a guess,(just a more informed one),
