That wasn't really Pete who posted that above...it just couldn't be...he didn't use the raining icon for the thread and with him being a smiley kinda guy that uses them to death it would mean that he couldn't have posted that - it's a story that never ends

68 points so far. Couldn't come at a worse time. Farmers have the headers out ready to strip what grain there is. Now they'll have to get the spray carts out and spend $5k on round-up etc to stop the grass and bindii. Just can't win!!!

Geography Dictionary: rain

 

A form of precipitation consisting of water droplets ranging from 1 to 5 mm in diameter. The type of rain produced reflects the circumstances in which it formed. A mass of warm air rising at a warm front will develop layered clouds and produce steady rain. Air forced to rise quickly at cold fronts will bring heavier rain. These are both examples of frontal rain. Convection rain occurs when warm, unstable air rises rapidly. Air forced to rise over mountains may form orographic (relief) rain.

 

That's how it's s'posed happen apparently...:confused::confused:

I actually had to label the wipers in the car... Indicator is on the left stalk, wipers on the right...

What is a "droplet"?

 

And is it bigger or smaller than a "drop"?

 

"

 

EG A "farmlet" is smaller than most "farms", yet a "toylet" is bigger than most toys (except our aircraft, of course).
