last year we had a record in Bergen with 220mm of rain in 4 hours. I remember manhole covers floating on a thick spray of water comming up from the ground, rivers formin in the strrets, and people swimming in subpassages. I have never been more soaked in my life, that day home from school.

Heavens! There was hail last week down in Sydney, which was pretty freaky. A bit early for hail.

Where in Australia? There are water restrictions everywhere specifically because there is hardly any rain.
