Overcast Today
Western Queensland is experiencing a most unusual weather pattern at the moment. Every few days, another band of cloud rolls through. These cloud bands are originating on the West Coast, and are bringing patchy falls of rains. The Bureau of Meterology is predicting that these rolling ribbons of clouds will continue to come through for a number of weeks.
At the moment, each overcast spell is being followed by warm, sunny days. This alternate moisture and warmth helps build quality pastures. However, the cooler weather will set in soon, and the alternate wet and cold will then damage some of the nutritional greatness in the grass.
For now though, everyone is smiling as we have a huge volume of feed to carry grazing enterprises (and in turn, the economies of our communities) through the winter and well into spring.
Bring on another band of cloud!
