Default Rain! Woohoo


What an awesome ride this morning, getting back into Port Melbourne
riding along marine parade heading towards the lightning, seeing the
storm roll in over the bay.

Start to head back home and get to South Melbourne just as the rain
literally got turned on.... sat there and watched the storm.

This is more like Melbourne!

Yeah. Having 20 degrees at 7pm in -May- is just not right!

Agreed..... after the rain this morning, It felt like the tempature
dropped 10 degrees! in the space of the rain falling....

going out to ride in the moring during May and it is 17 degrees is just
not right.

We're not enjoying it so much in Adelaide. If I wanted to get
soaked all the time (e.g. this morning), I'd move to Melbourne.

We have had a few cold mornings of late, i've been wearing my winter
gear for a few weeks now.

I must say though I loved the rain this morning even though I got a bit
wet.

quarter to three pm and its seriously heavy down here, put all my
potted plants out and I can hear the garden muttering "yay this is
better than shower water...", bring it on huey!

I commuted in to St Kilda/Commercial Road from Moorabbing at 7:30 this
morning in steady rain and a North head wind. It was great! I then rode from
there to Chaddy via Yarra/Gardiner's Creek. Gardiner's Creek has been little
more than a sewer for months. It was great to see it with rapids and some
whitewater.

Damn, looks like we just got your weather. 20 degrees at 1am?
Compared to 5 degrees the last few days, that's... warm.

Except for the complete and utter lack of rain.
