    happy to swap some of our dry weather for some of your rain, 2 weeks ago we got 17mm this is the most we've had since December and in December the highest for 1 day was 8mm most of the rain when we have had has been 1-3mm which doesn't even settle the dust for more than 10 minutes
    January rainfall was 3.4mm on the 9th followed by a whopping .4mm on the 20th

    WTF is that stuff, we have no rain or any grass, only brown stuff called dirt and dead grass.

    Worked all day in the holroyd area. Few really light showers and one heavy one as I was finishing a job. After the rain we had last summer these piddly little showers are nothing to worry about. Awesome for grass growing though. I just hope things don't cool down too quickly. I wouldn't even complain if we had a late summer heat wave with some nice storms. Quite a few of my lawns are going weekly now. Some were growing more than a foot in a fortnight. Quite a turn around from last month.

    Hows the weather............been absolutely beautiful in Melbourne. This summer has been a ripper (apart from the lack of rain), just day after day of 30 degrees plus.

    Pissing down here now with a severe heavy rainfall alert just issued.
    Looks like another couple of days on the couch.

    Drizzle overnight & this morning & now just constant light rain here since lunchtime. Had to pull the pin halfway through a 5 acre job this morning.
    They are saying maybe 100-200mm along the coast.
