Thread: IT'S RAINING AGAIN

It's chucking it down here on Hamo. Virgin had 3 goes to get in and has now diverted to Townsville. There is a Jetscare flight attempting at the moment but as there wouldnt be 500 metres visibility to the threshold I dont like his chances either...........he's just announced he's diverting to Mackay.

But you do realise that when we hear the official weather report.It will state that no water has fallen in the Warragamba catchment area.That place is a desert,they should add it to everyones expedition list.

Yes, it NEVER rains in the Warragamba catchment

However, today on the radio someone rang up and said this morning they were releasing water from Warragamba Dam into the river.

Figure that out if you can, because I certainly can't.

Erich

Warragamba 28.6 mm

Sick of it in Lithgow .... has not stopped for 2 days ...

Simon.

41 mm in 24hrs....innerwest grit washed off, vege garden watered, rain water tank full again and pool topped up.

That's about 4000 litres of Warragamba water I don't need to use.

Cars getting washed away on flooded roads are keeping us busy at work. That said though I am happy for it to rain as much as it likes!!

I have just put in a job application with a local council for an emergency management job that is basically repsonsible to storms and floods. I am hoping the more it rains the faster they will be in appointing someone.

I don't understand you lot !

It's a beautiful summer evening in Sydney



30mm in the gauge this morning and at least another 30 by tonight.

Our local dam (Woronora) is only at 35% despite the rain some ~18m below full. Decent rainfall in the upper Warragamba catchment though Goulburn ~40mm
