Unfortunately I think it mostly gonna stay north of us Weary, If this small low pops up off the Cooktown coast tomorrow, its gonna move E quickly and I think we will dry up just as quick.
		Records for 2022: 1520mm 2023: 2710mm 2024: 951.6mm (no records April-Sept)

It has a low moving across the cape around 6/3, then hovering in the N coral sea until the 12th before recurving back.

Looks like the Featherbeds are dissipating most of the rain. Interesting low out over Vanuatu and Fiji.

Probably been 10 years or so since we had a daily fall of over 300mm so its seems you northern guys are really copping it bigtime.. I see Gone Tropo and Bunyip on the OCC FB page this morning as well... Wouldnt be surprised to see that page hot up in coming weeks.. Is the steering patterns more likely to see us get a possible cyclone from the gulf or one from Vanuatu..? Hey Bunyip I dont envy you the shingles mate..i had them on the left side of my forehead a few years back...not good at all...I'd actually never heard of them before that...now sometimes when I'm stressed or rundown I feel some bumps, redness and itchiness there.. I've had to start looking after myself a bit better with diet and reduced alcohol and a bit more sleep..really sux getting older..only good thing is its at least 5 years since I had a hangover... BTW while we are talking wet days....Just imagine copping 6 foot of rainfall in a day....

Continues to rain here I seriously forget what a sunny day feels like. Me and my fruit trees are over it. Why they heck are we getting so much rain here instead of Tully they can have it back I don’t want it.

[url=https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/greatest-rainfall-24-hours]https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/greatest-rainfall-24-hours Are OCC any better these days? Stopped following them a few years ago just getting almost Higgins like lol. Hopefully one of them has done some sort of photography/video course before their next chase... I'm pretty sure Bellenden Kerr top station recorded 1900+mm over 2 days back in 1979 or round there. But how much fell on each day no one will ever know..

Bit of light rain with the odd heavy shower overnight. Very good rain up north again. The little low off Cooktown seems to be moving away this morning. 6 foot of rain in 24 hours. That's about the Cairns annual total. Amazing stuff. YTD: 1223.5mm

Think that little low will pull this weather away and give us a few days of sun. Cheers

BTW, Ron OCC are straight shooters these days...nothing like the scaremongering for subscriptions that Higgins plays up..

As an aside, if anyone can actually see the night sky, Jupiter and Venus are really close together at the moment.
