just 10.5mm ..

Not quite the deluge predicted also with bugga-all forecast down here for the week ahead....It really does seem like the forecasters just make it up on a daily basis..

Seems the blob has reformed over Townsville this morning and heading slowly southward towards the Whitsundays...

We had to slow down on the highway just south of Proserpine, where a low lying lagoony area was right up to road level because there was a couple of caravans parked on the road shoulder protruding into the actual roadway...one fella was hooked up to a jumping fish, presumably barra,standing on the edge of the bitumen with the rest of the party running along toward him watching excitedly and cheering him on.....sure to be an enduring tale of a cool holiday moment..

Weary did you go inland from Rockhampton or from Townsville to Charters towers and then down..?..and yep its a long enough Journey just to get to outback NSW let alone melbourne..why do you not fly..?
