The heavens have opened here!
It's blowing up a storm here in Toowoomba at the moment with thunder & heavy rain! Just started with a vengeance. One minute I was hot, next I'm rushing around closing windows & grabbing a cardy! I hope we don't lose power.

Sam I hope it doesn't destroy those magnificent flower displays Toowoomba is known for this time of year.

Hi Sam, we had horrendous rain here today on NSW Central Coast. It started at 8 a.m and continued on and off all day.
Our front yard and our neighbours was like a huge lake, and yes the ducks came, they loved it! Marian

We've had that sort of weather for the last month & a half!!  First time today we saw the sun for more than just a couple of minutes.  Bring on summer I say!

It always rains when my rock orchids are out, and when my Snow Bells creeper is in full bloom along the front fence.
Makes a white carpet with all the flowers that come off. Marian

Stop complaining. It's been cold and miserable in Melbourne, and it does'nt look like getting any better soon.

I'm officially calling it:
