Rain Rain Rain Rain!

Yes, the green tinge is nice. I would like to see more rain…there is some cloud forming near Adelaide, perhaps if you hold your breath and get Tim to shake his stick it will rain again.

Samuel

funny how you notice the instant green appear tinge in all the grass…within a day of some rain!

I most certainly hope it’s less than 6-8 months Fiona. I’ve already lost two shrubs and one tree (due to lack of water), and I can’t afford to turn the sprinkler on, because I get ‘slugged’ with a massive water bill from ACTEW if I do !

It’s this one

But I’m not sure if I’m comfortable with the bandwith usage (ie is it only downloading the map I want or all of them?)

In any event it gives a great view out of the dashboard

JB – which dashboard widget are you using? I’m assuming this is on your new ibook?

in another 6-8 months, probably.

I think the IMPORTANT point is — will there be follow-up rain ?

gee, wonder which one is the original source???

No.. Wait… hmm maybe BOM could be the better place to actually get this information?

That second link you put up is exactly the same picture as the ninemsn link.

hmmm, to clarify my first comment…I was trying to say that I haven’t seen the ActewAGL webcams with pictures as dark as they were for quite a long time.

Samuel

Fair enough…you can freeze it and control it with the buttons on the top of the page.

The Weather Company (who don’t sell rain) have some nice country/state satellite & radar images http://www.weatherzone.com.au/currentweather/satellites.jsp?state=AUS

That BOM display is all very well Samuel, but that continual ‘back and forth’ motion tends to give me vertigo !

Indeed

I’ve got the BOM radar loop out of Captains Flat streaming into my dashboard. sux to be a windoze l0s3r.

ninemsn yuck! (Sorry, personal bias).

Much prefer the BOM animated satellite images http://www.bom.gov.au/products/IDE00902.loop.shtml

Yes, unfortunately the Satellite Picture shows the cloud moving out into the Pacific Ocean …… http://weather.ninemsn.com.au/weather/satellite/default.asp

The clouds have cleared, the stars are out and fireworks abound… 🙂

go tim the yowie man!!

tim read the weather map is all

I should have promised to bring the rain in exchange for beautiful women sleeping with me.

now that’d be a good rep to get going…

I haven’t seen the ActewAGL webcams are darker than I’ve seen in quite a while.

Tim The Yowie Man must have done well.

Just had a look at the BOM Weather Radar and I see some slightly heavier falls on the way.
