There has been no rain today on Mainland Australia for the first time in history. The unusual reading had the Bureau of Meteorology teams scratching their heads. “The team can’t comprehensively identify a day in our records where there hasn’t been rain somewhere on continental Australia,” a bureau spokesman said.
