Apparently Mount Wellington got 236ml of rain in a little over 24 hours. That’s nuts.

Yeah and as Hobart is at the foot of the mountain it can be a dangerous setup.
Apparently some FTA TV channels are out due to lightning strikes up there.

Not to bad in terms of flooding over here on the eastern shore.
My house is a bit elevated as well.
Athough had a foot or so deep of water under the house

Salamanca wouldn't have been a nice place to be last night.

Haven't heard of any so far.
Touch wood
Rain is over now.
Only 1.2mm since 9am.
Imagine if this had of happened Next Week during the footy.
Probably would have had to cancel it.

I went shopping after work last night and in a flat car park the wind was blowing trolleys out of the trolley bays and flying them across the car park. Couldn't believe it.
I live on a hill so didn't get flooded but my driveway effectively turned into a river.

Weather has been pretty good lately. It's causing floods in the interior. Going to get up to near 30 degrees on the weekend.
Apparently we had some snow on the nearby "mountains" yesterday, certainly a bit further afield they did. If not for the wind it would still be quite reasonable though - maxed out at about 9, minimum probably around 3. I think we've only hit the negatives once so far this year, very mild.

This is why I love summer. Cold sucks balls.
Hot sucks so much worse. Minus five beats thirty-five any day.

How hot does it get in Hobart? Summers in in south-east queensland are hot but do vary when we get the storms rolling through.
But the cold is soooo drying (most of the time). I love hot and humid conditions.
each to their own. Hot and humid has me near hospitalised. Drained to the point where I can barely breathe, and certainly don't want to.

I only found out today that they straight up cancel sport in Sydney if it rains. Now I don’t think that they do it everytime it rains but it seems any reasonable downpour gets it cancelled. What the f**k is that all about.

Hobart is generally low to mid 20's most of summer with maybe a handful of 30 degree days a year.
Most days an afternoon sea breeze comes through preventing temps from getting to high.
I find humidity tough.
Which is why i don't think I'd cope in QLD lol.
