Tell me about it, cough, cough!!!

67F / 19C here in Pittsburgh at 13:00

18.6C / 65F, clear and calm here at 10:00.

Lovely sunny morning but frosty! My outdoor thermometer was showing 5C (it is a bit close to the house) but frost on the roofs of cars parked on the road and on the grass in the fields.

15C and foggy here at 8:25am

Cloudy, calm and 10C here at 7:00 AM.

Came across this Sun Clock by chance.

I like the way it flips and the hands run counter clockwise for us downunder persons.

This is neat. I was up early this morning and was surprised how much shorter the days are getting. We have such short dawn and dusk. I miss those hours from when I lived further north. Have a good day, all.

A few more days and then your hours of daylight will be longer than ours...

Today was cold enough that the heating came on this evening

Dam things keep filling up.

Regional NSW dam levels (%) Friday 23 September 11 of regional NSW 18 dams are at our above capacity
Blowering Dam 96.2
Brogo Dam 100.9
Burrendong Dam 130.9
Burrinjuck Dam 94.2
Carcoar Dam 100.2
Chaffey Dam 102.8
Copeton Dam 101
Glenbawn Dam 102.4
Glennies Creek Dam* 102.4
Hume Dam 97.6
Keepit Dam 99.6
Lake Wyangala 96.7
Lostock Dam 100.9
Menindee Lakes Total 105.8
Pindari Dam 102.9
Split Rock Dam 95.6
Toonumbar Dam 100.8
Windamere Dam 88.8

100 per cent just means that's the optimal level and anything above that is extra water that possibly could be released.

I guess that means you can have a cup of tea without having to worry about running out of water...

I have been told there is now enough water for a shower. Thems fighting words to an English man.

Our reservoirs are at 69% of where they should be. We are creeping up on the wet season, so there is hope.
A nice warm bath sounds good tome
