    Sunny and dry again today, 19C.

    It's still arid here and I'm busy emptying the local reservoir onto my garden. :) Three months on and the level is dropping quite a bit.

    Taken from the top of the dam. To the left of the building is the river should the sluice gates need to be opened. Unlikely!

        Still dry and fairly warm. Cracks in ground getting bigger despite using the sprinkler.

        It was a lovely warm sunny start, then it got progressively cloudier. It's just started raining now

        We have the same here, started 12-30 and went very dark, thought there was a storm brewing, but settled into steady rain now.

        Same as yesterday lovely cloudless skies to start with, then started clouding up from 12ish
        Gradually got darker as the afternoon went on and had a brief heavy shower at 4.30

        Bit wet earlier - see this video - and that was the road conditions back to being reasonable, about half a mile or so before, I was wading through water up to 18 inches deep.
