We were both awake at 6.45am. It was raining outside, although that didn’t last long. At least the 36 degree days are over.
It is humid and grey and still. It is strangely quiet, although that may be in my mind, as we wait for the torrential rain that has been forecast. An alarm sounds in the distance just as I write that. Funny. A once in a life time weather event it has been called by the department of meteorology. Apparently, Melbourne is either going to be flooded, or washed away. Good thing I live at the top of a hill, you'd hate to be in a low lying part of the city around about now.
It is hot, and still and overcast.
Birds are singing in the trees.
I wonder what disaster we are all in for? The entire rainfall for December to fall in the next 48 hours. The news broadcasts have been ominous. It is like waiting for some kind monster to turn up. Godzilla is due soon and we all wait holding our breath.
