@dlowan,
Actually, this is almost unprecedented.
It is Womadelaide weekend...which is usually well into the forties and dry as the arsehole of a camel in the Sahara.
It is also Festival and Fringe...ditto.
Coolth AND rain at this time of year.
A miracle.
Though the rain has stopped...hopefully only to make itself stronger.
Edit: Looks as though we've had up to 1.4 mm in some places in the city....none at all in others.
