Its been really interesting watch it over past days on the radar..

Just about guarenteed that is it was a SE flow the mountains by Yarrabah would interupt the rainfall from directly coming over Cairns but on this northerly flow its seems to at times to direct really heavy downpours right over Cairns between the Yarrabah range and the main mountain range out along the western side of the City but not further west towards the tablelands... Its really quite amazing to see days and days of large and consisent rainfall totals in Cairns without actually being under convergent rainfall...

10 day charts showing no real reprieve till early next week when a coral sea low drags the weather off to the SE..be nice if that happens to get a few sunny days..
