The blue things are rain storms!

.
What blue things? (I hear you cry). Well, yes, my point exactly. Green, yellow, orange and red would be welcome too.

Less than 3mm so far for February and less than 4mm for the year. We are talking summer temperatures here. Friday is forecast to reach 38°C with winds. Bush fire weather again.

We woke early this morning to do our permitted hand-watering to find the ground wet!

But only a little drizzle.

Not only did it not register in the rain gauge, the cobwebs stopped most of it reaching the bottom of the gauge. If you look closely you can see it.

My own private rain catchment!

  1. The cobwebs must be some kind of metaphor here.

    Huzzah for blue things!

    Lee, I do appreciate very much that there is no word veri! Kudos!

  2. I'm doing my rain dance for you. Don't watch, though, 'cause it ain't pretty.

  5. Seems to me that the blue things are related to not having storms.

    Hey Diane: the rain dance only works if the dancer is naked...

  6. I have broken all my umbrellas in the hope that this, together with boneman's shout, will do the trick.
