The 3-hourly synoptic reports showed the best falls from the line of
storms were around 20mm, and the SPECI information from the AWSs
didn't produce anything out of the ordinary. The line weakened right
out mid-evening, and when it passed here at Blackheath in the Blue
Mountains it was just some low cloud and light rain. Condobolin got
17mm, Parkes 15, Orange 18, Bathurst 15 and Dubbo 17.
