Just saw an ad for the OpenAir cinema at Sydney's Mrs Macquaries Chair - Into the Wild on Thursday Feb 7 2008. For you non-Australians, this would be the best place to watch this great movie with Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera House as your back drop and bush surroundings.

    I'm gonna see it, a 3rd time, at this place. Done the outdoor cinema thing a bunch of times, never at the OpenAir, but this one I REALLY wanna see in an outdoors environment.

    Gonna get my tickets tomorrow morning.

    Yeah, for the past 3 weeks. Wettest summer since I can remember.

    Fingers crossed for decent February weather.

    Well, at least this is making me feel better about missing out...

    Wetter weather: get set for more of the same
    IT HAS been a dark and stormy month, and there is no end in sight to Sydney's damp weather.

    In a rare alignment, all eight computer models used by the Bureau of Meteorology are strongly tipping above average rain for eastern and northern NSW for the next three months.

    "It is looking rather promising, right through to March," the bureau's climate technical officer, Mike De Salis, said yesterday.

    The bureau estimated the probability of above average rain at 60 to 75 per cent.

    As for Sydney's weather, "what you are seeing is what you are going to get". Only the state's south-west is facing a significant risk of below average rain.

    The bureau has predicted a better than 60 per cent chance that the south-west will experience above normal temperatures until March.

    Sydney is also on track for one of its stormiest Decembers. In the first 17 days this month the city was rattled by seven thunderstorms. "The average for the whole month is only four," Mr De Salis said, noting that more were predicted on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. December 1959 had 11 storms, while November 1961 had a record 14. "We could easily beat the December record. We are having storm after storm."

    Besides being thick with the crackle of lightning and the rumble of thunder, December has also been sticky and dark.

    The average 9am humidity has been 76 per cent, the highest since at least November 1955. "The average is 65 per cent," Mr De Salis said.

    And "it's been a very cloudy start to summer, with only two sunny days and 15 that were cloudy or overcast."

    Already this month 100 millimetres of rain have tumbled down over Observatory Hill, far above the long-term average of 77. Last month had 170, more than double the normal 83.

    While the nights have been warm, with minimums a full degree above average, the days have been more than half a degree cooler than normal.

    Mr De Salis said La Nina, the reverse of the drought-sparking El Nino, was finally taking effect, months after it began warming the western Pacific waters.

    "The La Nina has been a bit slow to kick in, but now it has."
