Let it Rain, Let it Rain, Let it Rain … July 18, 2007
Warning: This is a very, very boring blog entry.
To take my mind off being stuck indoors on a cold, rainy day with a 3 year old again I’ve been getting very interested in the weather stats for our local area.
I use this page on The Age website for my daily weather forecast. I like the fact that it tells me that it feels 4 degrees colder outside than the actual temperature. I went outside to let the chook out a little while ago and I can tell that it’s quite right. It does feel like one degree out there. It also shows the average rainfall for this area (down the bottom).
This page on the bureau website give the stats for this month. And it makes me feel much better about the rain to see that we’ve already exceeded our average rainfall for July.
See, told you it was boring…
I’m completely obsessed with the weather, so i found it fascinating
I’m with jojo on that. I find it somehow really satisfying not to just go outside and feel that it is cold, but to then check up and know just exactly *how* cold.
I’m obsessed with weather too. I’m in love with this site at uni that measures all sorts of weathery things right on top of the building across the road from my office:

oh, and it updates every minute, so I have an excuse for checking it all day! Shannon posted one a few months ago from her uni too, but it has a webcam as well. So cool.
