[QUOTE="Australian Cattleman, post: 334638, member: 285"] yes thats right 30 inches. they expect that amount in their proper wet season.most of the northern Queenslanders would be loving it. the only ones that wouldn't be would be travellers blocked by floodwaters.some parts of coastal north Queensland have 200+ inches in a normal wet year,especially an area around Tully just south of Cairns,it scores the Golden Gumboot award for the wettest part of Australia most years.I belive it has or is going to get a large gumboot statue at its entrance. Some Australian towns have "large statues at their entrances or nearby,heres a few to think about, Big Banana,4 big bulls (Brahman,Braford,Santa Gertrudis and Droughtmaster) these are at the four entry points to Rockhampton the beef capital of Australia,a big Orange,abig Apple,a big Pineapple,a big Fish,a big Prawn and a big Merino Sheep and there is talk about a town in our state erecting a large Pig. Usually these statues are symbols of an industry that is relevant to the area. They can be a tourist drawcard. Colin :D [/QUOTE]
