Quilpie flood info.

"At 7am this morning, the Bulloo River at Quilpie was 5 metres and rising causing moderate to major flooding. At this level, the Bulloo River at Quilpie is about 0.5 metres above the John Waugh Bridge (4.6 metres). Flood levels in the Quilpie area are expected to peak during the next 24 hours.

Downstream from Quilpie, a minor flood peak is expected to reach South Comongin by this weekend and Thargomindah next week. "

Now the race is on to get to Thargo before the flood.

Regards & Safe travels.

Wim,

I saw that flood warning this morning. This flow may put a little water into the Darling River Headwaters as well.

Cheers Kev
