12mm down in Howden yesterday. We missed a cracking storm by about 5km, which ran through Blackmans Bay and Taroona. That dropped pea size hail and locally 20mm in about 15 minutes.
Rain increasing today with snow on Kunanyi. Could well get another 50mm or so. Has been a bit of a dud month for us so far with lots of streams which have some how missed our area. Hoping to catch up today.
Btw got almost caught in the cracking storm that ran through the cbd about 5:30pm. Peak size hail and a torrent of rain. Would guess about 4mm in about 4 minutes. Would have got interesting if it had lasted 30 minutes
As an aside, a minimum of 34C in Marble Bar yesterday and max of 46C. The minimum is an “early season” record for WA. At one point there was an eye watering 46C difference between the top of the Snowy Mountains and northwest WA. Not sure what the record is for a contrast, but that must be up there
