Mrs.J Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Had quite a downpour about an hour ago. Was in my girls school and came out of the work room to a sheet of rain out the front doors. Just got home and need to check the gauge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 storm ne of ric (and other activity perhaps down there) might bear watching. the one ne of ric already looks pretty healthy and might be starting to rotate. stuff up here doesnt seem to maintain so far, maybe because embedded.
