Bruce Tuncks Posted January 8 Posted January 8 About the rainfall at edenhope west wimmera victoria. The "official " sites say that NO rain has fallen this month, but it is actually about 60mm. I would like to tell them about this but their sites have no way to tell them..... advice needed please. 1
Jerry_Atrick Posted January 8 Posted January 8 Presumably your talking about the BoM... From their site: "For all weather, water and climate enquiries or for reception, please call 1300 754 389" 1
Bruce Tuncks Posted January 8 Author Posted January 8 A telephone..... for which I may be the payer! bugger, this is not fair. They are the ones I am trying to correct..... gosh, we got zero rain when Heathcote got 180mm in one day, surely this must have got somebodies attention. In fact the rain at edenhope is above average for this time of the year. q: is the call a free one? 1
facthunter Posted January 8 Posted January 8 I think 1300 numbers are free. BOM is a non-prophet organisation. Nev 2
Bruce Tuncks Posted January 8 Author Posted January 8 I don't believe in prophets nev. When one can prophesise the next cross-lotto numbers, i will change my mind. 1
old man emu Posted January 9 Posted January 9 I knew a kid who had a glass eye. His father had a crystal ball. 1 1
facthunter Posted January 9 Posted January 9 Thats the bloke who said "I'll keep an eye out for you next time" Nev 1
old man emu Posted January 9 Posted January 9 His missus asked him to keep an eye out for the postman, so he put it on the letterbox. 1 1

pmccarthy Posted January 9 Posted January 9 Back in the day, artificial eyes were made of wood, painted. A bloke with an artificial eye asked a girl to go out with him. “Would I!” She exclaimed. “Your not so flash yourself you skinny bitch” he replied. 1 1
Bruce Tuncks Posted January 9 Author Posted January 9 Well I did ring that number and the phone was answered by a young guy who told me NOTHING. He sort of said that the rainfall could be held back for more than a month, and he couldn't tell me if the phone call would be billed to me or not. 1

facthunter Posted January 10 Posted January 10 I didn't say Gonads.. I reckon Trump would have a glass Jaw if anyone would. It would probably be FAKE glass. Nev 3
Bruce Tuncks Posted January 10 Author Posted January 10 Fake glass huh nev. I never knew about that stuff. Anyway, I hasten to report that the young guy who answered the phone at the BoM actually didn't know about the phone call cost on account of never trying to ring it himself. He also said that the Edenhope rainfall readings were "pending", and could be so for a month. I should have asked him why they lied about the rainfall with their zero figure when it had clearly rained a lot, but I was too slow to think of this. Maybe I'll call him back, depending on who is paying for the calls. gosh it's hard being a cheapskate, and you get no sympathy either. 1
facthunter Posted January 10 Posted January 10 It depends on YOUR plan with YOUR provider. The Poor fellow you're interrogating could not be expected to know. Nev 2
Bruce Tuncks Posted February 3 Author Posted February 3 Well they should not give him the job of answering the phone for general met office queries. I just got the number from the net. 1
Bruce Tuncks Posted February 3 Author Posted February 3 AND... whats the opposite of a near cu? ( I reckon Nev will know this ) 1
facthunter Posted February 3 Posted February 3 I'm more familiar with the other two queue's. I don't go NEAR CU's. Boring but safe. Nev 1
Bruce Tuncks Posted February 3 Author Posted February 3 The opposite to a near cu is a far cu of course 1
