rain! - 11:12 PM
(filed under 'weather')
it's been raining almost non-stop for twenty-four hours. that's brilliant!
water restrictions have been really severe for ages now & this rain is much-needed. it's the perfect sort of rain, too. soft, gentle, steady rain. a short but heavy downpour, usually typical of brisbane's summer weather, would be bad. it would just cause flooding & chaos, but hopefully this slow, persistant rain will give the ground a chance to soak in some of the water.
i'm surprised it's raining at all, really, because autumn & winter are usually brisbane's dry seasons.
let's hope that some of this rain is falling in the catchment areas to fill some of the increasingly empty reservoirs.
