23rd. went to town to do some shopping, started to rain this evening and has 2.5 inches of rain by the morning of the 24th. Have had a series of storms ever since and as of the morning of the 25th had had 6 inches of rain and some of the river to the south of Mackay have caused some flooding. Has cooled off by about 10 degree C and have had to put on some warmer clothing, everyone here thinks that my internal thermometer is out of order as I love the hotter weather.
Have not been doing much for the last few days because of the weather but plan to take a trip to Sarina on the 25th as the weather is going to be better, at least I hope it will be.
In the evening when it stops raining or between rain showers there is a chorus of frogs. The green frogs on the window ledge were so loud that we had to turn the TV up. There is also a very small frog that is in the drain and one that is behind the temperature gauge on the wall that make an even louder sound somewhat like a dog with laryngitis but very loud. In the morning you wake to a chorus of birds, some from the yard next door where they have cages of birds but mostly from the native birds in the area.
