Rain City

The weather has taken a turn to the wet this week. After a sweltering January we have had floods this past week.  Last weekend was a long weekend, Australia Day, but the weather did not cooperate, raining on all day Sunday and Monday, totaling 130 mm in some parts of the city in 24 hours. Bundaburg and Brisbane in Queensland had major flooding that weekend too.  Today it has rained all day too. I spent the morning at work help clean out the flooded basement. It feels like Auckland all over again with the wet weather. We have moved from out old apartment and and the weather has not helped us. Maybe the global climate change has made Sydney a wet climate.
