Yep stay safe all we have been lucky to have some constant drizzling type rain the last couple of days just on and off showers 14mm it was very needed here but that looks like some big downpours coming there.

All very localized here. When I drove past the local hospital on the way home, there was water everywhere. Didn't seem to get much at my place, though.

Bout to head up to Rocky to work for a few weeks.....

The bosses are a bit worried that we might get a bit wet during the training! Such is the life of a soldier on exercise!

reading on Weatherzone before it showed Yeppoon has had about 500mm in the last 48 hrs, so yeah it's a tad wet up that way.

I skied the car to work today from rocky to stanwell then again between gogango and dingo.  The boys who have there last night shift tonight tell me they haven't done a thing since Tuesday evening.  I'm out at Middlemount.
Don't complain! It could be worse, you could be six foot under or a brick of ashes!!
