Rick (S.A.)
that the Finke is flowing; also the Hugh, the Palmer, etc.
Stuart Creek was awfully bloo_dy dry, right up at the headwater, when I was there not so long ago; now tonight's TV news mentions it emptying into L Eyre South.
What a land of contrasts.
What about the
Macumba?
Is it possible the Kallakoopah might run with local water?
Anything running east of L Eyre ?
This weather might create a real spectacle across a very large pice of Aus that normally is dry & red.
So any ideas on how to view it from here, at my 'puter?, at
home. In a week or so I may take a flight just to sate my curiosity, but 'till then would love to see the spread of the water.
The last real opportunity to see northern S.A. & central Australia wet was in 2000; I was not prepared & made a small vow that I would not miss the next chance. so today I looked on the BoM site -saw the patterns of rainfall & noted that Yeundemu had over 200 mm!!
I thought of earth Google, but I recall the pictures are fixed, i.e. dated 2006, and not current. Is this so?
Cheers
