SWIFT ACTION!! 07-05-2009

After a quick look at the series of rainfall radar charts for today(Sunday).... I diddent realise it was as bad as this just to our south this afternoon.... even some "pink" and a bit of "red" rain! This together with conditions shown on the pressure chart ( slack elongated low centred to our south) and easterly wind put this as a classic weather (albeit a bit last minute!) move across our part of the Country... suggest some of these birds into the wind could have ended up on the continent with these conditions. The rain never reached us at all here and just seemed to peter out in the evening.
