Your spot on there Weary, we haven't had a forecast like that for this part of the coast for a while. Interesting couple of days ahead.

Looks like we are going to get some proper wet season rain..although some of you daintree mob have had some big falls already..Do you think the BOM are concerned about the extent of the rain and flooding Weary..?

I put the new gauge up this arvo with high expectations of running water over the top but not being run over by the missus again...

I guess we will see on both fronts..

Better go and top up the emergency tank and turn off the gravity flow system from the creek..I reckon the creek water might be pretty muddy by morning...weatherzone has 40-80mm for Wednesday here so its seems we should expect it to set in from tonight...

Good old Melbourne..35c scorcher one day, 20 degree misery the next...

and the last weather run have massively backed the weather off for us South of Cairns but still predicting a lot of rain for the Daintree area...

its anybodies guess.

Good morning weather watchers :)

Despite the forecast wide spread apocalyptic weather, I have only had 124mm here this morning lol
The creeks are at their normal just over the road and all is normal for a wet season morning with
the monsoon in our neighborhood.

I left cattle on the river last night, but I'm off to move them now. If it sets in as forecast we
could see a bit of a rise.

Might light the pot belly when I get back, it's nice to have warm dry air in the house in these events.


Cheers

8mm here.

Looks a lot better over the coast than out here.
Still nice and cool though at 26degrees. (Why would you want to have summer down south.)

only 68mm here for me weather was very hit and miss around here, douglas shire coming through with some decent totals once again, craiglie south of port 138mm, newell beach just north of mossman 137mm

96mm in the gauge this morning here. Still raining steadily. It should continue to be a very wet day. I'm glad we don't get that Melbourne weather up here. You have to love the tropics.

YTD: 871.5mm

82.6mm this morning, bit lower than expected, but not unexpected.

Looks like Daintree village up at the top with 294mm in the last 21hrs.

Rainfall was once again very sporadic here I only got 51mm here yet whyanbeel valley 4km from me got 100mm, the mighty daintree village has topped the north tropical coast though with 304mm for last 24hours and 440mm for the last 48hours!!!!

59mm here this morning. Some good monsoon rain over the last couple of days. Nothing that I would put in the severe weather category though. A little bit of backyard flooding here and there. Nice falls in the Daintree and Cassowary Coast areas.

YTD: 930.5mm
