Noah Revisited

In my last post almost 4 weeks ago, I reported that Armidale had received almost unprecedented winter rainfall, causing our local creek to flood. To my great surprise, this has happened a second time in the last few days, with the same effect of cutting the town in two ... apart from perhaps four places where bridges across the creek are sufficiently high to enable traffic to pass. During these flood events our many low-level causeways are closed to traffic, sometimes causing major traffic snarls. Not that these really bother us because our home is way above flood levels and most of my journeys are along an E-W axis to the University which is itself high on a hill-side.
