Driest December in three decades

"This has been the driest December since 1972, which was also a 31 mm month. But this has not broken the December 1950 record, when 9 mm fell."

This quote is from the Cairns Post, December 30th 2005.

The big dry broke on December 23, when our farm received 165 mm over 24 hours.
