G'day Folks :)

I only got 83mm night before last, there was a distinct line on the radar at one point and we were just on the northern edge.
Mossman and area really got it.
Scott the Rex Ck intake is up behind the gorge , where Mossman's water is taken, that pipe the runs beside the road as you head up
to the gorge comes from there.

A fairly nice arvo yesterday, then as night fell it got damp and rain came early this morning and has left 25mm in the gauge this morning.
Seems to have set in now. Been and filled all my jerry cans.

Now I'm off to the dentist again..


Higgins was a grader driver out on the southern downs when he started chasing a few storms. He put his family in a dangerous situation
and his misses left him. He went harder and started the subscription stuff and it just grew.. He is a dead set F&$@ wit ..
Love that parody acc. and Brisbane weather is run by a real meteorologist and I would listen to what he has to say over hollywood any day.

Looks like we could get a bit wet here and maybe a bit of a blow but nothing to serious.


Cheers

Bloody dentist referred me to one in Cairns, as he didn't want to pull it. :(


Well just 38mm in the gauge this morning, I recon tomorrow might be a bit better :) :)


That track has not changed much in the latest one..
Now it's just the waiting.

Make sure you get a quote from the dentist Bunyip, my missus just got some work done from a referred dentist and it cost an absolute bloody fortune.

Meanwhile, as per usual the crossing point for the low/cyclone gets further and further south as each track map gets published.
