Rain is about to spread across South Australia, Victoria and New South Wales and it looks like season-breaking rain for many inland areas, according to weatherzone.com.au. "In the next few days much of SA, northern Victoria and southern and central NSW can expect widespread falls of 25-to-50 millimetres with potential for as much as 80mm in places. The wettest area should be northeastern Victoria and southwestern NSW where more than 100mm is possible," Weatherzone meteorologist Brett Dutschke said.

 

This will turn out to be season-breaking rain for many farming areas, a boost for those hoping to sow their winter crops after a long dry spell. It had become a desperate situation for much of the region. Since last winter most of it has received less than half the average rainfall and some has fallen into drought.
