RAIN - Dry Season Over?

The BOM predicted it - and it was just as they said.

Rain in the evening and quite a bit more the next morning.  Had 7.5mm in Rapid Creek, 8mm at Nightcliff Pool and 10 - 12mm in Northern suburbs, but only 2mm at the Darwin Airport.

Darwin had a taste of the rainy stuff during the week [ 21st], and could the dry season be over?

You would hardly think so this weekend - low humidity and a 17 and 18C overnights.  But the end of August approaches.

A notable end of August coming too - 31st anniversary I am told of the monumental album by Neil Diamond - "Hot August Night" is on  24 August 1972  - [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_August_Night. ]
