2004 rainfall below average

January 2nd, 2005 | No Comments

I can belatedly report that I recorded 1111mm of rain in 2004 at our home in Porepunkah. This is slightly below the official long-term average for Bright of 1153mm.

I wasn’t recording temperatures last summer, so can’t give accurate averages or highest maxima.

I was recording in winter though, and can state the lowest maximum in 2004 was 5.2 degrees on June 18 when snow fell on the hills near Porepunkah.

The coldest minimum was minus 0.6 degrees on June 6 and August 16. I don’t have total confidence in the accuracy of minimum temperatures, as the thermometer is sheltered.

Alice Springs for all things lesbian Fri, 02 Jan 2009 05:29:42
ABC telly is really full of stuff to keep you in touch with your lesbian side.

Last night was the night to put the barriers to your inner self aside and hang out with the lesbians in their own backyard.

Alice Springs is on the map, being the lesbian capital in Australia and there are lots of girls to choose from.

The professional lesbians (people in high places) are known as the A Team.
The reguar lesbians (taxi driver, blue collar workers) are known as F Troup.

This has to be good for tourism

Funny thing Ebony, the girl didn’t protest, it was one of her relatives.

But generally speaking you’re right, too few people accept responsibility these days for their actions.

I worked in PR for a while and it’s a strategy to blame someone if you need to explain bad news or poor behavior. Most people are like that too.
