slight possiblity of rain...
it's very slightly possible that it might rain where I am... (well not over my pooty, but outside!!!).. which is great, as we are in an officially drought declared shire of Qld... and we want rain!! The dam that feeds the shire is down to 13% 
we are on very tight water restrictions...
come on hughey! let it rain good and proper!!

The sky darkens, lightning flashes, thunder peels but, as so often happens in inland Australia, all this fury is followed by only a few drops of rain:

It's a green drought.. just enough rain to tickle the plants, but no where near enough to do any proper good
One thing we lack is a water tank.. the local council is STILL debating (have been for 12 months apparently) if they ought to offer an incentive to get people in the shire to install them! How mad is that!! We just want a water tank anyway... better have another chat with our landlord...
