Much of eastern Australia has had a tremendously wet year as a result of which we've endured heaps of flood events. In the last couple of weeks even Armidale has way above average rain events and, as usual, Dumaresq Creek has risen to flood adjacent grasslands and cut low-level creek crossings. If I recall correctly, this was about the sixth such event in 2022. These two pictures record the latest event.
Now, just after the Spring Equinox, Armidale has recorded another large rain event - abo ut 30 mm or well over 1 inch over-night. This time, our garden was awash with water. Here we are looking west. Luckily for us, the water didn't come indoors. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this rain event will clear this morning before that happens.
This next picture looks east from our dining area and shows another little lake adjacent to our neighbour's garden. One of our deceased cats lies buried under this little lake and I hope it's not disturbed!
Stay dry! Tony
