chillumpuffer Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Yikes man. The icing ( pardon the pun) would have been blizzards, but it's just the incessant rain that is the problem. Stay safe and warm my friend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stryder1978 Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Thanks for the well wishes! You worried about your roof over the weekend, I worry about my heater crapping out in the middle of this arctic blast! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least we are expecting to see the sun by Thursday afternoon - still too cold to do any melting though! What really pissed me off was I got up at 0315 hours, did workout then decided to clear the snow off the driveway and sidewalk. Just as I finished, it started snowing again - 30 minutes later, couldn't even tell I had shoveled! GRRRRRR!😬 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobDobbs Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 29 degrees F right now and snowing. Windy too so driving is a real pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rm2551 Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 RAIN. Will it ever stop? 400mm on the sunny coast yesterday/last night with fatalities and missing people (woman attempted to drive through flood waters, mistake). 300mm now predicted for the Gold Coast with Brissie to cop flash flooding as well. So the summer of 21/22 here never showed up, replaced by almost non stop cloud/rain/storms. My work mates in Sydney have also copped flooding overnight. Seems the east coast of AU is a shitshow of rain and floods. I hope you get a decent summer soon Chilli and others in the old country...

Stryder1978 Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 This morning....-3 F (-19.4C) with a wind chill of -21F (-29.4C) and snowing. I shoveled yesterday morning, yesterday afternoon after work and had to again this morning. Please bring us that global warming......

chillumpuffer Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Grey as per usual. Only 3 days to go and if it rains on all 3 days, it would have rained every day in February Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul carruthers Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Spring like weather, upper 60s in the morning and upper 80s in the afternoon, no doubt.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rm2551 Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Rain and floods. There have been two warnings about dam releases tomorrow for our area. Even though I am on high ground, a few suburbs here may well flood hard. Roads are pot-holed, partially flooded hellscapes at present.

rm2551 Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Floods. Almost as bad as the 2011 one. Couldn't get #1 son off to work as just too many road closures including the main motorway. Poor buggers at Goodna once again lose everything. At least the rain has stopped. First time in 3 days it isn't raining. Oh and the potholes. maaaaaaaan, some are deep enough to kill a poor unsuspecting car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stryder1978 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 After 121 hours below freezing, shoveling/sweeping snow before and after work on Tues/Wed/Thurs and Friday, we finally had sunshine and a nice weekend. It's supposed to be above average temps Mon through Friday this week, then a crappy weekend of 30's and snow/rain mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
