Orara River at Glenreigh, wich feeds into the Clarence peaked at 10.3m, just shy of moderate flood levels, the Mann topped at 5.4m, plus still raining in the catchment north, south & west as well as local rain.

Extremes hey , from dust to flood . How does it go in the song ? "This is Australia" Hope the floods don't effect you too much .

If I get flooded in, you can kiss 90% of the valley goodbye. Even 1 in 100 can't get to me, it's just the continual rain on heavy clay soil, not to mention the sullage pit is UP HILL from the house, so more rain = overflowing sullage pit = algea instead of grass, + when subdivision was done up the front, the develpoer was a senior engineer on the council, so the drainage was never done properly & everytime it rains heavilly I loose another couple of inches of driveway.

Thats not good , well lets hope the rain stops for you .

[jusdeb]

What did you wake up to this morning ? If its anything like here more rain , wind and freezing weather coming ....

[finchbreeder]

I'd say send it this way, but I think it's too late. Sunny, and cold winds in the early morning and late evening. Below average rainfall for the season. Mid 20's daytime temp and 5/8 overnight.
