Right here in SE Queensland now we have had per week of fixed rain and have actually missed seeing the solar however lastly it made an look a few days in the past and adopted by some heat days earlier than the rain begins up once more however this time it will not be as heavy fortunately. I tipped over 10 inches of rain out of the rain gauge throughout this newest rain occasion which was nothing in comparison with what fell in different areas which have been badly flooded AGAIN.
Through the dry years that are extra widespread for us, I all the time mentioned I might by no means complain in regards to the rain however after per week of it I used to be simply so comfortable to see the solar as soon as once more….
…regardless that I puzzled if the solar would ever break via the fog…but it surely did finally.
Our home has mould rising on it now which is a disgrace contemplating it was solely painted a few years in the past however my hubby forgot to inform the painter so as to add a mould inhibitor when he was portray as that’s what he all the time used to do when he painted the home up to now. Nonetheless, the various homes that have been flooded in different areas have rather more injury and sadly some residents have been simply recovering from the final rain occasion a few months in the past when this one hit.
The freeway to Brisbane was minimize and because of this the vehicles bringing provides to the supermarkets could not get via so this was what the veggie part regarded like in Coles. The day I took this photograph the freeway had simply opened and a workers member informed me the vehicles have been on the way in which. It simply exhibits how shortly the shops run out of sure meals. Sadly the Lockyer Valley which is usually referred to as ‘The Salad Bowl of Australia’ was flooded as soon as once more and lots of farmers had simply planted crops after the soil had dried out from the earlier flood so greens will probably be very costly for a while.
Once in a while if there was a break within the rain I walked across the backyard to test the rain gauge and seen the pineapples are doing okay….
…and this one was prepared to choose.
The bromeliads that have been broken by a extreme frost final winter after which a hailstorm have grown new pups which is good to see.
As now we have needed to stay indoors more often than not my hubby has been watching YouTube tutorials on alternative ways of propagating garlic and so forth. so the kitchen has was a science lab.
No flowers are rising within the backyard at current other than a few bromeliads. Winter is on its method and I feel we are going to all be glad if there are not any extra climate occasions for a couple of months right here in Queensland. I stay up for seeing the spring flowers showing within the backyard.
Have an amazing weekend everybody!
