I know, suddenly the temp drops and I don't remember a spring being so windy.

And apparently 30 on sunday.

I don't remember ever having so many really windy days at this time of year. we usually get a few around Feb, when it's hot, not usually gale force winds in Spring though

We just got 6 drops of rain, we need rain so bad.

I hope you get more of that wet stuff Freddie, I'd send you some of ours if I could

Those photos remind me of the NSW bushfires in Dec 2001. The sun looked like a dull red traffic light trying to shine through a hazy smokey sky.

We do need rain and less hot dry gusty winds.

Thanks Deb, it's gone

A couple of hours ago we had a downpour here in Coffs Harbour. Lasted about 10 minutes now it has gone. Hope it is on its way to the areas which need it.

Ditto.

Yes! I remember talking to my cousin overseas who telling me she saw it on the news over there....I described how it looked from where I was, how my patio was covered in ash.
