big bada BOOM thunderstorm
Well, it rained in Perth today, for the first time in a long time...
Reminds me of Adelaide IV ...
"He gave them hailstones for rain; fire mingled with the hail ran along upon the ground. (Psalm 105:32; Exodus 9:23,24)"
I was driving my car as it hit but retreated mostly in time to safety with a few dints only .
Lots of buildings damaged at UWA, including almost all the stained glass on north face of Winthrop Hall. I'm so not looking forward to work tomorrow. Somerville inches deep in pine fronds.
Came home to a puddle in the middle of my lounge, several boxes of stuff wet *bugger* and one dead DSL modem. Online with the spare for the moment running on a not quite correct plug pack. Domestic switchboards are not meant to have a high water mark.
So wearily at 2am I write this ... to shower and then bed.
