Only mid teens here today, but clear blue skies. Rain is forecast for late afternoon, so hopefully the weed spray works its magic before any water starts coming from the clouds.:rain:

About 18 deg and windy down here but for once I need a bit of rain to moisten the soil and grass seed that now fills the rut holes in the front yard.

Well, feeling nervous today. All to familiar memories of 2011 Christmas Day hailstorm that damaged our van (plus the pergola, carport and verandah).

Vic today 40 oC with afternoon storm to roll in. In the hands of the gods again.................

Yep, that was a bad day. One car written off, my mustang with dents in every panel, half the colourbond roof dented, and the driveway had 50 cm deep gullies eroded into it.
Could have been worse, the poor bastard in the house behind us had a 1 m wall of water blow out his back sliding doors, and flow right through his house. Looks like got a nice Reno from the insurance though!

A little bit chilly here today I hope no-one suffered any damage from the winds. Snow will be landing just up the road from us at the moment.
