Topic: NSW/QLD Storms, Widespread Rain and Floods 25-31st Dec 2009

[Shaun Galman]

Hi guys,

I have a few rainfall totals for Lightning Ridge starting from the 25th to the 31st December 2009.

Totals were very mixed as the bulk of the heaviest falls skirted town to the N-NW but town received 96mm on average for the period mentioned.

I would hazard a guess the combined readings for the surrounding area would be up around 130mm for the same period, as it's pretty well flooded in the low lying areas to the North of town.

Kindest regards,
Shauno.
