Thanks CG. Sounds like plenty of much needed water is falling up that way.
Cheers Mick

Campergirl,
Thanks for the info.
I did have a look around the RTA site. Found a link to traffic cameras on the M4. With the rain this morning it looks like a slow wet trip.
Just might save some of those images on the lap top so that when I am in
camp on the
Canning Stock Route I can be reminded of what traffic is really like.

Travelled the Golden Highway and Castlereagh Highway via
Dunedoo and
Mendooran to Gilgandra yesterday arvo. Thousands of white cockatoos on the roadside. There's reports of locust plagues up around Coonamble and a warning a week or so old on the RTA site. Any knowledge if they are still there.
Light rain here all night, but the manager told us last night they need 50mm here to hold the crops up, so they may be OK.
Heading to Burke today, and will update re the locusts when we go through.
Take care all travelling :-)
