The Cyclone You Have When You're Not Having A Cyclone!

The garden hadn't been watered for several days and the pool water level was as low as it's been since the pool's installation. 

Everything was buckled down, the Waeco brought inside and the sun blinds rolled up.  All was ready for the possible cyclone, strong winds and indications of around 150mls of rain daily for several days.

So we should be midway through the 'cyclone' now.  We've had strong winds, the sea is a virtual washing machine and we've had a whole 4mls of rain!  The sun blinds are back down, the pool has been topped up from the garden hose and the Waeco is back outside again!

What a fizzer!

This morning I topped the pool up and it was extremely calm outside at 6:30am, good enough for a bike ride even!  There is a heap of debris in the pool though.

So the lawn and garden will remain dry and everything will be back to normal.  As the photo above shows it is another beautiful (but a bit windy) day on the Sunshine Coast!

But we sure need some rain!
