Gee Jeff, I hope the rain is abating for you guys. Only a bit more and it looks like it will be getting into a few more houses.

That is not good Jeff, I certainly hope that the levels don't rise any more mate.

Water gone now but was close - went through some houses - probably about 4 inches higher would have gone in the back of our house - Stopped raining now...

hmmm I just checked the gauge and we have had another 25mm here. ( Forbes ) 3 good storms have gone through and more to come. Looks like a wet summer! Glad you didn't get your feet wet!
cheers

Take care there Jeff. Hope you had a Merry Christmas. Here in Carnarvon we are fortunate enough to be able to start our cleanup.

We have 45 mm in the gauge, Wyangala at around 90%, Eugowra still on river watch/flood watch. Should be creek watch though...can I say we need a flood?
It wont be fun cleaning up Bec.....the only thing I can say about flood water is I would rather have that than fire.....

Hi Bec

Covered Eugowra (my home town bte) for the Tele today. Will post link and some pics tomorrow - wasn't a big flood but still alot of houses on the low side (west) get flooded.
