Thread: Flash flooding!

we got about 20mm yesty and about 12-15 heavy mm today so hopefully we get that in our creek

Besides the fence damage and any possible stock loss I bet you loved every drop you got!!!!

Been some very good (heavy) falls around Sydney as well approaching 200mm overnight.

Spent last night at an outdoor 21st not as good as we had hoped with that rain and strong southerlies as well , but everyone seemed to have fun, kicked the last out at around 10am after filling them with bacon and eggs.

We've had around about 100mm over the past couple of days..

I have phoned some of the people who live up stream of us although some of my country is higher than they are. Have reports of over 200mm on top of the last few days total of100+ mm.

We all like pics so I'll put a few more up

It got all dark and nasty


I'm now heading down steam.




And then down further and met the front breaking the banks





My additional equipment for the fence repairs tomorrow.... The 120 + Box trailer+ ATV and lots of wire

Any one near by OK at fence repairs?

Only a total of 54.5mm here, but I guess your lot will be down in a week or so - probably be cut off from the village for a couple of days. The river is only at about 0.5m at present and has only risen a few centimetres in the last few days.

Got to be better than what you have been used to over the last few years though John.

Hopefully there will be another 50mm or so in the next couple of weeks.

Yes, definitely better than the last ten years, but still basically very dry. Tried grading some roads a week after the Christmas rain, but gave up after a few hours because of the dust - ground was only wet a few centimetres down.

Weeds are growing very well anyway, and the tanks are full, although the dams aren't yet - been virtually no runoff.
