The Country Diary of a GenX Woman

She’s Full

20130531 010It has only taken three weeks for the dam to start overflowing to the creek.  In 2011 the dam was still half empty at the end of June.  In addition to the record rainfall for May, yesterday we recorded the coldest maximum in 15 years with an official top of 13 degrees.  The wind chill factor kept it around 10 degrees and the frequent rain showers made the day feel even colder.  We got another 6mm of rain taking the total for May to 240mm.  The next few days are forecast to be clear and dry, but with night time temperatures hovering around 5-6 degrees.
