John!!! or other Tamworth Area locals

Hi didiaust,

Funny you should post just now, I have been looking at the 28 day forecast for Tamworth (with the festival in mind). The entire catchment area is wet from rain during the past 6 weeks so any heavy rainfall will result in the rivers coming up again. And the 28 day forecast indicates a good chance of rain as indicated by the darker green day.

As far as chance of flooding - haha - I was told when I first moved here that "it floods every year for the festival". Bah humbug - only done it once in 12 years. But with the wet catchment and forecast rain - there is a better than even bet that it could happen. If you are coming up - plan on camping away from the river.

No particular spots between Newie and Tamworth to be concerned about.

See the link for Elders 28 day forecast

Cheers
