    They're forecasting a dry Autumn around these parts Ed which does not bode well after the Summer we've just had.

    I think that's an understatement. I'm loving this rain, hope the forecast is correct and we get some more over the next week.

    We have had a little rain this week in Brisbane which has been great, Real funny season this year pretty much missed out on our usual wet season fingers crossed for a wet Easter.

    Could be a wet week for us Sydneites. Forecasting it for today/tomoz/wed with possible flash flooding.

    Looks like it may be Saturday work again this week.
    Cheers.

    Got 1 done but it rained on me while doing the back yard. Went home soaked. I'm already about 2-2.5 days behind. Next week will be hell.

    Same here, but not that far behind - yet. Showers off and on today - some heavy, and yesterday was a beautiful day. March is traditionally our wettest month, have had app 1300mm so far this year. Really feel for my colleagues going through drought conditions at the momemnt

    Only reason I'm that far behind is the car being off the road until Wednesday. Really annoying as the weather was beautiful. Got the car back late Wednesday arvo and we got thunderstorms that night. Put in 4 big days Thursday to Sunday to get on top. This rain is going to make next week very difficult.

    Nice rain here over the last couple of days. Generally 40-70 mls in my work area with 2 more wet days forecast.
    Hopefully we will see some grass growth before it turns cold. My new mower has done a paltry 35 hrs this season and has barely seen a blade of green grass.

    Fortunately, I picked up a job refurbishing a rental house which has kept me busy for the last couple of weeks and that will be finished this weekend.
