The day started off quite warm and we got to around 32 degrees when suddenly the heavens opened. I have never seen so much rain. We just happened to be underneath a thunderstorm, thunder, lightning and even hail stones. The Village Shopping Centre got flooded.
The Emergency Services were kept busy, fallen trees, flooded streets, homes flooded and creeks bursting their banks. We have had more rain in a few hours than for all of December. Up to 3pm we had 43mm of rain. It has been the wettest December day since 1936.
It is 11.00pm and there is still thunder and lightning and it continues to rain, though not as heavy as earlier on in the day. It is supposed to continue until later on tomorrow. If it continues for much longer we will all have webbed feet.
This photo was taken at 11.23pm ....the lightning lit up the sky and made it look like daylight
From the Lens..............
Storm clouds rolling in
Trees uprooted
A break in the clouds gave a beautiful sunset
