In my last post, I showed a video of a storm that hit our town. Rainfall from this downpour varied from 1.5″ to 4.5″ in a short period of time. Immediately after taking that video, we had to leave for Adelaide. That, fortunately,  meant driving east. It took us over an hour, but we managed to get ahead of the storm front. We pulled over briefly to take these photos:

The pictures, if lined up span about 180° from south (pic 1) to north (pic4) facing west. The photos were taken near Pandurra Station. 30 minutes later, the storm had caught us again, and we had another 3 ½ hours of driving in the rain.
