Certainly is a land of contrasts at the moment . Rain and floods on the east coast and drought and bushfires on the west
Was out near Bourke on Thursday and Friday and the Castlereagh was in flood and all the rivers that feed in to it barr the Macquarie were running backwards with the volumes coming down
So anyone downstream will be going to get wet feet shortly
At Dubbo the low level bridge went under about 12 on Thursday
Burrendong Dam is over 140% capacity so they have had to double the release to 44 Meg to try and relieve pressure thus maintaining high levels down the Macquarie
