Re: Heavy rain eastern SI 8th-9th Aug
Clear and cloudy areas out there at the moment. Can see a few stars. Looks like GFS is bringing rain again to the Eastern SI this coming weekend. See what the next few runs do. Certainly some uncertainty.

Yes latest GFS model shows lots of rain for this area next week, Hope it doesn't eventuate as I dont think the ground can take much more rain.
60mm for this event so far with heavy drizzle at the moment.
