That would be awesome but is the potential run of extreme min temps next weeks rival that of 2001 do you think?

This event was a very similar meteorological set up to the 2006 event.
The photos are all great.

yes its so nice to have had so much needed moisture alright,this evening its very mild so there's heaps melting happening,when you hear the amount of water coming down the down pipes its amazing just how much water can to sitting on top of a roof.
