We are fine for water up here - our dam spills over EVERY year. Our backup dam (Manton Dam) which we usually go wakeboarding at is closed at the moment cause someone saw a little lizard (croc) ![]() and that only stops overflowing at the end of the dry. We regularly have 200mm of rain overnight (24hours). I enjoy the wet season up here but I LOVE the dry....... |
