Hi All,
Thanks for the info you are providing. Road Conditions for the area updated. I did put a flood warning out on Friday the 4th for Road closures expected in Eastern Areas of SA but have not been able to update till now.
Remember, anybody can leave live
feedback on the Exploroz Road conditions reports.
If you are looking at the ExplorOz Road reports don't forget to "toggle all" when you find the Section/Road/Name you are looking for.
That way you can see any travelers live
feedback that has added or better still if you have info about road conditions for the area please add yours.
How many of you have seen this. (Sat images, comments and Road condition history)
Image Could Not Be Found
Also the reports are designed to be updated live in the field by people on the ground at any location via their own internet connection, laptop, smartphone or internet capable sat phone. Negating the need to send info to 3rd parties. So has the potential to be more accurate for remote areas than any other source, we just need to do a bit more education and get local authorities businesses and interested parties to participate.
Now from what I have found out so far.
Most of the Rain has gone west and south of
Lake Eyre so
Lake Eyre South may receive a lot of water - also
Lake Frome has had a lot of rain in the vicinity there are some suggestions of a major flood/filling there too.
There has been very heavy continuous rain in areas where there are no BOM weather stations so will be interesting to hear reports as they come in.
There will be large volumes of water moving around out there. Be careful.
hope this helps
