Thanks for the pics SM, I thought I replied yesterday but seems to have not loaded. Did you have to trim the sleepers to slip them in? I was going to build a garden bed with them but I need 22-24 of them so a bit pricey, although Arnel were around $65 each.
Ended up with 54mm from the last 5 days or so. 140mm for the month |

They fit straight in Ron. They're the same width and length as the standard fence rail. Pricey alright, I only did the panels that required it.
No rain here overnight, GFS rainfall forecast looking good from early next week at the moment.

Hi all, New to this forum. Just moved to Cairns a week ago and awaiting the big wet. Grew up in Broome, but the weather is so much more exciting here. Too many times the Dampier Peninsula would push a potential Broome cyclone back out to sea. Was in Mission Beach during Cyclone Larry though, which was quite the experience! So, now onto my username... I've been looking at some latest weather modelling and do I dare say it, looks like a cyclone could form off the FNQ coast next week. Nothing from BOM yet, but that ain't where I'm looking. Maybe they don't want to fear monger, but this one could be a beauty. Let's see if I live up to my username  But, that's why we're here ain't it? Because we have a thing for the weather... At least she's gonna get wet

Hi mate...Welcome..Hope you have already stocked up on bread and milk then..! Nice chart SM...Bout that time of year again ..things will very likely ramp up over the next couple of weeks as they do this time every year... I certainly would appreciate the cooling effect of the rain and a good creek flush would be lovely...!..a spinner can stay the hell away from here though hopefully...

Welcome mate, we've had a very average start to the wet so far. Hopefully your right and a nice monsoon burst is on the way. The GFS is in agreement but has the low moving down Mackay way at the moment.  Rainfall looking good in your area from Sunday Scott. YTD: 157mm
