Well we've managed a grand total of 13mm out of all this.
It's pretty depressing watching that rain disappear off the radar as it moves passed the northern suburbs of brissy. Then this morning seeing totals of over 100mm in Brisbane and hearing from friends on the coast and northern hinterland that they got falls over 30-40mm can be hard to swallow.
Everything is really struggling here, the grass has been dead for almost 3 months, I've had to buy water for our tanks, we had 2 gums give up the fight yesterday and drop some big branches beside the fence.
All of this is pretty depressing, but it has absolutely nothing to do with the BOM.
Or perhaps you're right, I mean those clowns have never accurately forecast a flood or a cyclone or catastrophic fire conditions or even a thunder storm have they... We should pull all of their funding right now! And while we're at it, those fools at the CSIRO have never given us anything good either, let's cut their funding and shut them down too....
Have faith mate, we will get our share of the rain soon enough. Actually I'd dare say we're only a month or so away from hearing about how there's too much water falling from the sky in some places.
