I dont know how much rain is in my rain guage but a hell of a huge bucketing just hit us between 10:30-11:00pm this evening.
It was anitially NE wind but just right before it bucketed down a Southerly came through iam sure it pushed up what was on the Christchurch radar at 10pm which I will show below as well as small surface flooding on the street just to give you an idea of what it was like unfortunatly my camera was getting wet with the moderate rain falling so I only got a few.
I also managed to walk through a huge puddle which was deeper than I thought and the water came up over my tips of shoes that puddle was prob ultimate guess 4mm deep.
Anyway rains easead a little but depending which way this low tracks tomorrow could have us bitting our nails .
It is very hard to see the flooding as my night vision is crap but atleast I tried.
cheers
JASON TIPPET.
