And then this. Locusts are probably due on Thursday:

Nah, the spiders got 'em, just like the snakes finished off the sharknadoes and those rapture angels that turned up.

So, we have an epic comedy (or tragedy depending on perspective) going on publicly on this side of the pond. After the rains began to hit you folks Down... there ( 😉 ), press has tapered off. Have the rains made much of a dent or allowed any progress?

Someday’s hysteria seems better than reality. Sadly...

The rain has helped a bit in Victoria. There are still out of control fires burning in Gippsland (eastern Victoria) and on the border of New South Wales south of Canberra. Other fires are being brought gradually under control. Yesterday a water bomber plane (C-130) crashed in southern NSW while fighting fires, killing three US crew members.
