Finally!, some decent rainfalls up and down the East Coast.

Axle, we have had 50mm here in the Central West NSW in the last week. Some more on the way luckily with our dam level at 1.5% and Level 4 water restrictions. Michael

The funny thing is on 27/1/2020 the BOM issued a rainfall outlook map with virtually no rain expected on the East Coast. This was of course after they also predicted no worthwhile rain until April.

It just goes to show how difficult it is to predict the weather using multi million computers.

Left Brisbane Saturday morning headed for Portland, currently in Broken Hill and today is the first bit of sun we’ve seen. Moonie Hwy had water across it in atleast half a dozen spots between Moonie and St George, huge amount of water all through there. A nice storm that arvo came through Hebel and saw others near Dirranbandi also.....Dirranbandi looks to have mostly missed what surrounding areas had gotten. Water everywhere from Hebel through to Walgett, though Brewarrina looked to have missed out. Roads out on Darling River Run are closed currently, as are ones around Cobar we looked at heading South on.Bourke to Cobar was water everywhere and heard the highway has been closed several times (we got through in time), rained the whole way from Cobar to Wilcannia just about, though 5klms from Wilcannia the rain stopped. Wilcannia looks to have missed out, though this morning we woke to light rain there, hopefully they get abit more there as they need it.
