Over at the rain gauge at Luckyland....

Thought I'd start the chat off.

Cold here not a lot of rain...... areas that haven't been watered in the garden of late.... look dry. Other areas getting water ..... look wetish still.

More rain or should I say showers may fall, but not a lot in it.

How did you other gardeners fair if you have had rain lately???

From the rain gauge:

14mm Tuesday morning.
10mm Wednesday morning.
1.5mm Thursday morning.

Hoping for more showers. But I'm very thankful for every single drop we received.

waves to everyone

Over night on Tuesday...... 2.75
Yesterday morning ......3 mm

So I guess the weatherman had it right for a change... about 5 mm to fall and we got 5.75

Ha!
This one's easy a big 0

Not a drop! Well maybe a couple of drops but none that counted!

But we did have ice on the car this morning so I guess that had to melt into water!

Went down to 2C
Didn't damage any plants just had that layer of ice on the car

Wow guzzigirl didn't realize Melbourne got that much rain, should be good for the garden

When do you usually start getting frosts??? I would have thought maybe closer to the end of April??

We're usually pretty safe until at least Anzac Day but this year has just been so totally crazy we'll probably end up with snow this winter.

Haven't had any snow here since May 2000.

I haven't ever seen snow...... Been that long since it snowed your way??? Wow though it was only about 4 years ago.

been a long time

I found a way to make it rain - plant carrot seeds. This is the second lot I've put in only to be followed by torrential rain - they are probably over the road by now!
