Thanks Sue.

Steady rain so far (10pm Sat) Hays Inlet Festival cancelled. If this keeps up, we'd defer until next time, it's a bit hairy on the roads in heavy rain.

Will try to come and share my recent modest harvest of sweet potatoes. However Miss 15 may need a trip to have her wrist x-rayed instead...if so, see you next time

Lovely to have you interested in coming,
The park is close to the corner where Queens Parade meets Gladstone St.
There is no cover in the park just a lone picnic table and small children's play area. The wet weather contingency is to adjourn across the street under the butchers awning. We've never had to do that so it will be a first :) bringing a chair would be handy.

true, you would have to check it before you decided to leave, and work out from the big picture radar (512km composite) whether there was a large rain front heading over the area in question.
garden things generally go ahead despite brief showers, but rain that has set in can be another matter

Yes, thank you Scarlett. However it is Sunday and they don't have advance radar (no crystal balls at BOM) and although I use the site quite often, no one can tell whether its raining or threatening in a given small geographical area. Local knowledge over science every time.

Elaine - maybe use this (I find it indispensable!): http://www.bom.gov.au/products/IDR663.loop.shtml  
(note you can zoom out and in using different radar radii)

Have something else on this weekend but would be interested in coming to future events.
A street address would be helpful please. Google maps don't bring up "Apex Park, Brighton Qld".

We'd love to come, weather permitting. Is there shelter at the park? Do we need to bring chairs? Can you PM me with a phone number to check on the weather - we're a 60km round trip from Brighton.
