OMG what is this??????

What is this stuff...........it was on my windscreen going to work this morning...........
And I heard something on the roof while I was at work too.................
and when I got home we got another little storm..............
this is great............we need lots more but it could be the start we need............we had 14mls on Sunday, 3 mls last night and today we got 27mls.............our second biggest fall since June 2012...........
Falls close enough together to add up............didn't fill any dams but run a little bit of water around.............
It was so nice to smell the rain and hear it on the roof.............such a nice cool breeze coming in the window...........heaven.............
now I know it can rain...............come on mother nature keep going............this won't be enough to stop feeding the cows and sheep...........................
Catch you later
