July Rainfall

The July rainfall figures are up in the post office window. We had 125 ml compared to the 38 year average of 112ml. That's seven months out of seven above average for the year. 125ml may not sound much to a Queenslander where they have regular torrential downpours in the wet season but on top of the six previous wet months and three months of cold temperatures and little sunshine, well it's been slippery and miserable. It's been wet in early August too already, although the last couple of days have been dry with a bit of wind to dry out the surface. It's shortlived though. Tomorrow should be alright if the red sky tonight is a clue, but Thursday is forecast again as bleak, cold and wet.
