[QUOTE="Australian, post: 802905, member: 8793"] Today was our worse day for rain. Had almost 4 inches. Was cut off from civilization for about 4 hours. Our main bridge had about 2 metres of water over it. A few bulls got mixed up in the wrong paddock when they went to swim the creek and ended up downstream in the wrong paddock. Some cows and calves swam the raging creek to get to me to see if I had any hay. The flodding has been mainly around the Darling Downs 200 ks to our north and around Rockhampton about 900 ks to our north. Parts of our state have been flooded over the past months and it continues way out west in the flat country. It will take weeks and weeks for the waters to drain into the southern ocean. Some of the Queensland waters will drain into lake Eyre which is in the top end of South Australia. It is usually a dry salt lake that is actually below sea level. It currently has milions up on millions of birds in it now, Pelicans and Sea Gulls (about 1,000 miles from the sea) This will be about its third big fill in the past 18months. It could have another burst after this one, should any cyclones come across from the gulf of Carpentaria in the next three months or so. ( cyclone season). More rain is predicted for us. [/QUOTE]
