2nd unsuccessful escape attempt by Moby Dick on the Torrens.

Cunning and patient, he (or whatever pronoun he/him/she/her/they/them identifies with) is able to wait for years for the river to surge, and then under the cover of a storm, makes a run for it down river.

Copious amounts of rain coming on the weeks end. Ants already working their holes frantically here on the ranch.

There was on another day around this time (during the Ashes Test) a rainband which came from the NNE.

I reckon that was the 94-95 test (Blewey's debut) day 1 which was held in January after the quad series that year with Aus A.

You could see it coming in all black from behind the scoreboard,

This? (I've tried using the youtube coding; it won't show - see post above)

It's definitely the 2010 match I was mentioning, which finished before the continuing saga between Botham and Chappell as well as the storms which would have washed out the game after lunch.

Yep, pretty tense here for the farmers in Spalding.

Just a couple of the big operators to finish with a massive race against the clock. Hearing a few of the local farmers assisting with their headers to get as many in the paddock as possible.

did you know they work in reverse in the Northern hemisphere?

I have an old school friend that lives in Kenya and she said that El Nino is the rains and Nina is the heat.

Isn't Kenya equatorial though?
Neither means rains or heat, they just relate to the temperature of the Pacific's Ocean and if its warmer or cooler. Affects different countries in relation to the Pacific with global atmospheric circulation I'd imagine?
