Raining in Brisbane - again - 2Mar13

Where are the blue skies and the warm sunshine?  Probably still over in New Zealand around Clyde to Queenstown.....

Its always hard to get over a holiday and realise that life is quickly returning to normal.

So I was chillaxing and checking my trip photos and listening to all that rain.  It was time for a coffee - but when I looked out the kitchen door - OK here was Norman Creek, up and flooding again.  

Norman Creek runs along down the back of the yard and usually its just a nice green shady spot, no sign of any creek.

But after a bit of rain, it springs into life and becomes quite spectacular rather quickly. 
Its about 1m below the bank here, but spreads out on the other side
Hmmm.... think that is now less than a metre from the bank...

The neighbours cars looking over a lake - most unusual
Zoomed in to see a wave break happening further out
Hmmm - I haven't see it so close to the table before
 Of course, it fades away as soon as the rain eases off - which is just as well!

OK no worries, rain has eased!

Neighbours had moved their cards, but the grass has reappeared so all good!

  1. I really admire people who can travel on rainy days, too need courage. I don't usually go out when it rains.
