Michael,
Indications are that the cooler rainy weather has provided sufficient conditions to put an end to at least most of the bushfires across Victoria. This has been one episode of catosrphic conditions we do not want ever to see again. A much cooler and drier morning here in Sydney as well - a reminder that the winter is fast approaching.
You must be interested in the tropical cyclone developing in far north Queensland - the influence of the onshore airstream should provide increasing showers for your region I suspect into the week.
in the meanwhile, we are into baby purchasing mode now getting ready for the new born's arrival.
