But then...... just when we were celebrating puddles here in South Australia, it rained...
and rained... 
and rained...
blew furiously...
like a jetty in half....
Holy Moley...we're just not used to this sort of thing.Photos courtesy of Flickr and Adelaide Matters.
It was the wettest weekend in three years.
The wet weather has certainly moved across the parched land.
In a big way.

maybe we could export our rain to you, as usual I have a week off and its pouring down outside.
of droughts and flooding rains.... yep Australia - we have had rain for a week or more then the past few days have been gale force winds.. broke my tamarillo tree clean in half. I could cry.
it is amazing.. some children out west have never seen rain.
Enjoy those glorious puddles!
Whoa. Mother Nature sure took a turn in a big way. Hope you took a moment to dance in the rain.
Wow! You folks don't do things half way! Talk about making up for lost time. Hope the weather moderates a bit so you can get back to normal. No need for ice cubes in the bird bath today.
hey pam! wow, i love this post! and the crackle paint photo looks gorgeous against your black background! as i said in my e-mail, i'm so SO happy about the rain you're getting. i can't describe it, but somehow i could *feel* the dryness there... i wanted it to rain very much so that everything would be drenched in water's life supporting goodness once more... xo
What amazing photos. Nothing like a good cleansing rain, and then some. That looks like it was needed.
Wow that is a scary picture with car and the wave wow!
Whilst I'm reading this the thunder has started rumbling. So I'll send it to the top puddle!
xx
OH MY GOODNESS! Pam our city was flooded today! The farmer and his two kids make a cute photo. Look at those giant tires!
I have an award for you!
Gracious! Now your art will have to morph to encompass a briefly-greener landscape...
You wait for ages and then it all comes at once - hope things are calmer now!
oh my, that doesn't look good. i guess we are so much more used to wet weather over here in sw scotland! though lately there has been a distinct lack of it, probably all over your way!!!
Fabulous photies! Darn confusing the weatherman here in this big brown land of ours hey!?! X:-/
wow, great photo....we need rain so bad.
wonderful photos, Pam!
Interesting Australia should have downpours when southwestern Ontario had them too. Rain is a glorious thing when the land is parched.
