Reply #1 - Jun 21^st, 2014 at 9:11pm ah well.. that was great... some rain... great light show... really need the rain.. But what I was going to say.... surely (don't call me Shirley) climate change cannot be denied... and yet we still have deniers... hopefully they are quite young... and will live to reap the bounty of their ignorance.

Rain glorious Rain.. just had a very brief very heavy bit of rain go by.. and it is amazing here.. it is so quiet .. then the distant thrumming and then the first hard drops and then... crescendo... a mass downpour beating the roof and walls.. oh wonderful of wonderfulness.. !!

It was a band of pounding mass water...

.. I heard it as it headed nth...the thundering hiss of the rain on the trees.. like a big wave passing over...

YOU are likely to get one or two .. especially where you are..

It is called weather and this is not a chat board. You have got to stop denying the science Emma and it does not point to scary weather men under your bed.

please mother give us more ...

In Perth, it didn't rain for the first four months of the year...

Dad bought a water guage and we all joked about it until we finally realised: it hadn't rained for four months!

Shocked

.. not sure how long since Perth has had that happen..

*Sure....they're anti competitive as any subsidised job is. It wouldn't be there without the tax payer. Very damned difficult for a brainwashed collectivist to understand that I know.... (swaggy) *

umm. perfectly normal, call off the climate cops.....google and 3 seconds of your time Grin

"Summer
Summer in Perth is from December until February and sees temperatures averaging between a high of 27 and 33 degrees Celsius and an average low of between 15 and 18 degrees Celsius. There are sunny skies with the weather staying fine and dry with very little rain to speak of. There are also pleasant sea breezes that will ease the summer heat in the afternoons.
Nights are normally warm and pleasant with temperatures rarely falling below 18 degrees Celsius. January and February tend to be warmer than December, so if you are susceptible to the effects of heat stroke, be very careful in the Perth summer."
