Woo hoo..after a few false starts over the past couple of days, the skies have turned grey and begun leaking....hard. Although we had only recorded 1mm by 5pm today, there have been some fairly heavy downpours with more predicted for tonight. The frogs are chirrupping and the air smells fresh and heavy. Let's hope we get 100 mm over the next few days. Julia's Little Creek, which flows into Leycester Creek on our place, had stopped flowing and many of the the plantings were struggling so this rain is so welcome. It will be wonderful to fall asleep to the sound of heavy rain on our iron roof as well.Post Script: We recorded 40 mm last night (Monday night) which was wonderful..but we need another 40-60mm over the next week or so, please.
