There's always a silver lining: no water restrictions for Sydney in summer.

My usual route westwards is to drive down past the airport and onto whichever motorway takes one towards Canberra (M3?). Just after the tunnel, I leave at King George's Road and drive all the way up that, via the various name changes, to the M5. Once you're on the M5, it is probably just 20 minutes or so to BOP. In the morning, the traffic would be fine, but trying to retrace that route midday, there are potential bottlenecks all along King Georges Road, sometimes through the tunnel (though it tends to be OK when you're driving east), and then when you get close to the SCG precinct along Anzac Parade. I guess you could avoid King George's Road by taking the M3 all the way to the M7 junction, and then the M7 hits the M5 at exactly the point you would have to leave the M5, so it cuts that out. You'd land up paying tolls on both the M3 and M7 though, while my normal route is free because you leave the M3 at the last exit before the toll.

But I agree, far too much running around in the wet. I'll be giving BOP a miss tomorrow.

Wow, you really have jumbled up your motorways!!

M5 is the motorway starting at the airport. M4 is the one out to Penrith.

Depending on where you start, but let's assume it's the SCG, I would avoid the M5 totally and go Parra Road/M4.

How's the weather looking now around the city?

I'd get the Western Link road over the Anzac Bridge but then again I only live in Lilyfield

I'm in Bronte/Clovelly area and it is actually not raining at the moment. But the skies look as if they are still thinking very hard about it.

The radar suggests it will continue to rain in patches.

Well, hopefully we've played enough in the wet this year to get the plan right by now, this is a game where it might actually slow the dogs down a bit so it may be good for us, may be a forlorn hope, but its hope
