[AusNOG] Current river level

[Jason Sinclair]

Just an update - the river gauge is now over 3.7m and predicted to rise
to 4.5 by 3pm. I'm going to take a wander down the river and will let
you know what I see.

Sorry, my born and bred West coast brain is still telling me that East 
is inland even though I know Ippy and Toowoomba are West...but anyway I 
was thinking last night there's so much focus on the existing known 
flood spots, what about the next domino's to fall, better start 
organising for those 'cause with so much already flooded and more rain, 
the water's gotta go somewhere...


Thankfully it cant do any further harm once it passes through Brisbane,
though, I wouldn't be taking my boat out in the bay for a week or three
with all the debris that will end up out there. Northern NSW should be
spared much further flooding as well I think, as the rain system that
caused all this broke up into nothing last night, but, they shouldn't be
complacent just in case, who knows how much is still in their
catchments.

BTW on my previous, Trains at this stage will continue to run, buses
only will be stopped
