Bonfire weather outlook

Post by dstocks »

As everyone on the east coast will know, its been rather wet lately. The causeway was under water last week, but is not under now. Thing is, it isn't by much and Thursday is forecasting 10-30mm of rain. At the higher end of this scale, this will cause issues. Ill have to have a backup plan in place just in case. I cant foresee what will happen, but due to how sodden the ground is at the moment, it wont take much for the creek to come up again.

No cause for concern yet, will provide an update when I have more info.

Oh, and short on fridge space, so a few eskies would be useful.

cheers

    Yeah, figures for timing.
    Unsure of everyone else but I'll have 9" of ground clearance so I can make it. Lol

    Luckily there seems to be no retards attending this year.
    So much like the drive down, on your own if you can't make it the whole way.

    Come to think I can get under the car without lifting the front end now.
    So might be 12"

    I lol'd at the first sentence but for the life of me can't figure out the meaning of the second. :lol:

    I just looked up an alternative route via Lyons road, that's a fair hike!

    Think I might bring the truck.
