Oh my gosh, thats a fair bit of rain.
We have had plenty of rain down here in Melbourne as well, with more forecast. I hope that it subsides quickly for you. Its great to hear that the catchment area got rain too.

It's seems to be either famine or feast. That water looks awfully close to your house.

The photos truly tell the story...wow, what a lot of rain you're getting. I hope the flooding ends and things return to normal. Take care.

WOW ! I am glad your house is up high- the water looked pretty close. I know we need rain but surely you didn't order all that for Christmas!
