Sorry, but we hogged all the rain and hail in Victoria late yesterday.  I still have 'drifts' of ice 18 hours later.

We in Bathurst haven't had the dust storm but had a thunderstorm last night and another one about 10 minutes ago.

Not much rain but anything is better than nothing.

Yeah well. The trees and vegatation that hold the soil to the ground are gone, so it's ony to be expected.

Let me guess. Global Warming? Climate change?
