At my house rain was very close to the top of a 2.5 metre wall with a 1.4 metre porch. The rain was very close to horizontal. I stayed indoors. I'm a bushwalker, not a hang-glider.

At least 18 people went up kunanyi/Wellington yesterday, and had to be rescued. And no, that isn't a joke. This is one of the rare occasions where I'm in agreement with the public dogpiling they've received.

I just read about a feudal uprising where a duke's son was killed by rebels. They used a trebuchet to knock him off the battlements with the only available ordnance: a peasant's decapitated head.
