Some PE Rain Images

26 March 2012 By Alan Straton

These images taken between 23 and 24 March were sent to MyPE.

After the Weather Guru’s epic fail to predict the rainfall last night I can’t help but feel a little cheated – not only did I climb onto my roof to do a little bit of preventative maintenance beforehand but the prediction of a deluge failed miserably. See: Massive Rain Forecast – Don’t be fooled by the sunny day today for evidence of my complicity in making people all over Port Elizabeth scramble to batten down the hatches.

As a consolation prize here are some images from when it DID rain this past weekend:

Chief Cook, Bottle Washer and Broom Mechanic at MyPE
Passionate about Port Elizabeth and definitely NOT packing for Perth. Alan's ethos is epitomised in the words of Nelson Mandela; "I have fought against white domination and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the idea of a democratic and free society. If need be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die." See more articles by Alan.
