Cats and Dogs, Pigs and Chickens
One 'fine' day in Brisbane...
- 10am: woke up, decided to lay in bed a little longer cos it's so comfortable....
- 11am: finally out of bed, after a quick cereal breakkie, its back to the books, nice sun out this morning...
- 12.30pm: hmm.. sky is getting dark.. wonder if it's gonna rain AGAIN...
- 1pm: adrian's driving us out for lunch, just as we leave the garage, small drizzle turns to humungous downpour... is that hail i see landing on the windscreen?!?!?!
- 1.05pm: hmm, hail seems to have stopped, but rain is still INSANE!! can't see the road, visibility is max 40m out in front... the road drains are flooding... can imagine Munn's garage again being flooded like on Sunday...
- 1.20pm: settled at Toowong Village cos of undercover parking!
- 2.30pm: the rain has stopped! back to home for more work....
- 4.30pm: the small drizzle is back.. with a nice cool breeze... so good for sleeping...
- 5.10pm: leaving the house for cre8ive... as i drive off, small drizzle becomes huge downpour again!! why, why, why... traffic jam along moggill rd...
- 5.20pm: managed to reach Laurel's house, the garage is flooded slightly, not as bad as Sunday... the rain has slowed quite a bit.. now its like normal Singaporean rain... ? The radio reports the storm is heading southwards towards Redcliff area... no wonder the Pacific Motorway's jammed up...
- 6pm: reached church.. rain has slowed down somemore.. nearing drizzle state...
- 8pm: left cre8ive early to study.. its only a small drizzle now.. radio reports the storm is now over the sea and won't trouble the city anymore, numerous power outages reported over 8000 homes affected throughout the duration of the storm, 4000 lightning flashes... what a night... no storms tomorrow, so I can take my exam in one, dry piece... =)
- 11pm: shouldn't it be time for bed? why in the world am i still blogging... hahaha!! =P
