It has been raining steadily for over a day now. It is raining continually with a bit of wind about but not too much. So far we have received in excess of 6 inches (150mls) but being steady rain it is able to get away OK. The pool water level isn't rushing over the top or anything. The pool has an inbuilt overflow pipe (about 1.5 cms diameter) and it is coping quite well.
You would expect to see scenes like this (above left) on any road near a creek so it really isn't anything unusual after 6" of rain. Just a good time to enjoy the cool weather and sit back and enjoy a movie or two on TV!I just took this screenshot off the Weather Bureau radar which shows graphically the downpour we are experiencing right now.
Not a good time to be driving on the roads though. I see where all the Sunshine Coast's dams are now full as you can see in the pic below.

Yep, we would like to get nine inches of rain. That would fill our stock tanks for the cattle. Today was a "perfect" spring day. Sunshine and very little to no wind. Most unusual for our location. Our high 15C. I don't know if we will get two perfect days in a row, but we sure hope so.
