From Mike:

I'm aware that this week in the NT there have been record falls in the NW and today was our coldest month in 40 years and our coldest day on record since they began compiling records - yet - when asking them for info re these falls they are unable to find history of past falls on their database - it's all supposed to be on a spreadsheet somewhere!?

Given this event occurred during June, my rainfall statistics would be useful for this period:

Date	Rainfall
Friday, 15 June 2007	21.6
Saturday, 16 June 2007	30.8
Sunday, 17 June 2007	8.2
Monday, 18 June 2007	0.0
Tuesday, 19 June 2007	10.4
Wednesday, 20 June 2007	21.4

Total for the month of June was 270.6mm incredible considering the typical avergae monthly rainfall during the winter months and also considering that it is the wettest months for several years. One can say with confidence, the drought is over in this part of the world.
