Staying on the Gold Coast at the moment, beautiful day today. Had a glorious sunrise and a bright sunny day, went for a swim in the surf, went for a bike ride etc etc. But, just checked the BOM forecast:

"A trough associated with a large, deepening low pressure
system off the central New South Wales coast will move through southeast
Queensland early Wednesday morning.
Expect W/SW winds with gusts to 90 km/h to develop overnight and Wednesday morning."

"Precis: Fine. Cool and windy. Min 6 Max 17
UV Index: 3 [Moderate]"

Brrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Living here is a tough job, but some one has to do it.

,they keep letting the water OUT of the dam.

John, if they didn't let the water out of Wivenhoe, Brisbane would have no water. The water flows down the river to Mount Crosby weir where the pumping station and treatment works are.

BTW 12deg here at midday. I can't remember a colder day in sub-tropical Nambour.

Hhaha yes Brian they do, i was just noting the fact that it may be a 'false economy' in water terms, keeping a river flowing out when no water is flowing into it. Apart from sparse bouts of rain, whatever flows into Wivenhoe comes from Somerset dam and its catchment.

besides i was actually joking, could u imagine if they didnt let any water out apart from the sucking pipe at Mt Crosby, central Brisbane the river city would be dry, city cats floundering in the mud, catfish dying horrible deaths, the river walk becomes a mudlside.

Sounds cold for Nambour, cold as crap up this way, cant recall a colder day either, so much for global warming..

The turners will remove the splinters free of charge just to get a piece to play with (timber not bum )

Cold and wet again today. Cold and sunny yesterday. Anyone would think it was winter...
