Original Message
I live in Perth, Western Australia. We don't get much rain here at all and its a joke when we do because we hardly see that much. Now this has been going on for quite a while, summer has ended, we are in Autumn (fall) been hot and dry for so long and often wondered how our dam was going. Turns out its very very low, dam is nearly dry and our drinking water is running out.
It's been on the news the last couple of days showing our pictures of very low dams but I get up and go to work and every second house still has their sprinklers going, trying to keep their stupid lawn green.
Can't understand how they are not letting the public know how bad our situation is.
I'm looking towards our future now and can see how dry and hot we are going to stay even though to the east and up North of us of Australia is flooding. It's not coming our way.
The next few days is suppose to be rain! but, us here know its only going to be a couple of days of splatter on our faces. Reality is setting in.
