As what is laughlingly called soil here had been baking at 39-49C for 4 weeks it was even more brick-like than usual and as a result rejected the rain completely. So flash floods were the outcome.<br /><br />I spent a fair bit of Sunday excavating our culvert. One set of friends were recovering their drive from the middle of the road while another was shifting the tan bark from his front garden to his back garden (where it had been on Saturday lunchtime).<br /><br />After 3 days with no rain the flow in our Creek is back to low, hopefully as a result of the water that has gone into the soil staying there!<br /><br />MartinFlabmeisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00934077052437339591noreply@blogger.com
