Hi Peter et al,
With all the realities of floods up in Qld, I note some communications from
last March on this forum.
You said : "Apparently the Darling will be in full flood due to the recent
rainfalls,
but the catchments that fill the Murray (southern NSW and northern VIC)
hasn't received the same amount of rainfall.
I'd say the 1956 event was sum of major rainfalls in both catchments, so
it probably won't reach the same extent."
Please note that since then, both Northern Vic and Southern NSW have had
extensive flooding and the Murray is now cranking!!
It will be interesting how high it gets as, according to locals it has only
just begun...
Could we see a repeat of '56 yet?
Cheers
Steve Potter

Hi Steve -
The Murray flooded. The water peaked at 12.3M at Morgan, breached all
levees and was the highest flood recorded since white settlement.
Cheers

Hi All.
Here is an interesting 2010 rainfall stat for consideration.
S/W Qld's current rain for March - 248mm.
Wettest on record for March - 310mm.
When? 1956. What event took place in 1956?
Cheers
Steve Potter
