rain at last!
forecast looks nice for tomorrow:
THUNDER!
(i hope it starts slowly to get the ground into a soak-up rather than run-off mode)
i know it’s the other end of the country, but, be careful out there!

I know it… People up here are already saying that we’ll soon be talking about building arks to survive the flooding. HA.
Well, it looks like we’re going to get walloped.
I pray for a long lasting rain, with breaks of hours in between for the earth to soak up the water. Then more, then more of the same.
Did you get much?

I happen to have a digital weather station that measures rainfall to 1/10th of a mil. So far, we’ve only had 8.4mm from this system. But it’s still coming down.
If you can make out that pink (heavy) cell near Kaitaia, that thing just opened up on us:

It’s up to 15mm now and it’s still climbing.
HAHA, I should get Cumulus running so that it sends the live data to the web. *MUST RESIST WEATHER NERD URGE*
We’re going to get it shortly in Wellington.
Our neighbours have been out checking on the system. (Thanks, J and B.) The spring is running and the tank is filling.
21.6mm.
