Re: Weather
Won't be as severe as the BOM say, bit of rain but so what, I have seen floods as bad as it will probably ever get and it is not a big deal, thunder and lightning concern me more than rain when I am fishing.

Re: Weather
couple days of drizzle, no big deal. Typical over hyped media driven climate dribble. There is a fortune to be made in scaring people, just ask Al Gore
