It's Raining, It's Pouring!

We have had a huge amount of rain in the last 18 hours. I had to be careful going to work this afternoon - some places I was almost aqua-planing!
This is the Turitea Stream down the road from me. Our street is one of many that empties into it, but this is near the beginning of it's journey. This is dairy farmland and the stream sits about 3m below the carpark I'm sitting in taking this photo:
