well this is a significant change - is Australia now counting rain from midnight (like the US) instead of since 9am (like the UK)?

warning, mosquito borne virus targeting horses wearing bits

www.news.com.au/travel/trave...
the past tense of bite isn't bitted "Residents have also been ordered to remove any standing water, such as in coffee machines and pot plants, where mosquitoes can breed. The symptoms of chikungunya arise typically four to eight days after being bitted by an infected mosquito and can last up to weeks, months or even longer. They include fever and severe joint pain, which is often debilitating and may be prolonged, as well as joint swelling, muscle pain, headache, nausea, fatigue, and rash."

google's hopeless ai overview to "was 1985 40 years ago" AI Overview No, 1985 was not 40 years ago; it was 39 years ago. The current year is 2024, and if you subtract 1985 from 2024, you get 39. Calculation Current year: 2024, Year in question: 1985, and 2024 - 1985 = 39 years."
