Bit different to last May...

In May last year (gosh, have we been going that long already!) we were talking about how remarkably dry it was.

Here, the May 2008 total was almost reached on the 3rd, and by the 6th we'd had more than double the May 2008 total...

I don't know, some things are still the same. I had to go and clear the birdie doo doo out of the raingauge yesterday. 
As for the rain, I've got ya beat. I had more rain on the 2nd alone, than I had all through last May.

Yeh, but it doesn't rain much over your way anyway. LOL!   
As I write we are only a fraction short of 50mm so far this month already...

Looking at the year since January however we are still around 125mm less that "this time last year". Swings and roundabouts...
