It was raining again when I got up this morning.

Another rainy morning. <yawn>
This is the second day they are talking about getting a month's worth of rain in a week. 
"Oh Magoo Flannery, you've done it again."

We, in New York, got 2 months worth of rain in one day back on September 1st.
That was probably due to climate warming causing droughts.
I watched a segment on the new's channel, where they made the observation that climate change, Covid consequence, etc, modelling, is hideously inaccurate.
And the joke, regarding the BOM is that they can't even get an accurate weather prediction in a week's time, let alone years in advance.
Wasn't it in the 70's that people were predicting an "Ice Age" in the making?

They were predicting an "ice age"----because NYC had very cold winters in the late 70s. Jamaica Bay and the Hudson River froze over in 1977. This sort of thing just doesn't happen.
Ummm.
But it did.

The earth is more than 6,000 years old.

I know my geology----thank you.
My point is that the earth has experienced hotter and colder climates, over *millions* of years.
We are in an interglacial period.
Also, 50 years is nothing in the skeme of things.

They keep promising rain here in Victoria but it's hot and muggy wish we could have some cold weather again.
Does Tim Flannery live in Victoria?
This could be the reason the rain isn't coming.
Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't Victoria kooler, overall, than Sydney?
Sydney is known for its humidity, btw.
We have air conditioning, so it doesn't really affect us.
I'm not sure if tim Flannery lives in victoria Pepe, we are cooler here but we have been getting humidity in recent years,
I have an air conditioner as well which is on at the moment.
You live in Melbourne? open a window, there's like 100mm of rain and floods
I usually do have my windows open but it has been muggy even with the ran.
weather is much more pleasant today
Yes it is I went to bunnings and bought some plants yesterday.
I'm not keen on the hot weather, I prefer the cooler months.
