The Murrumbidgee River is (normally) less than 10m wide. Presently at Wagga Wagga it's about 10 kms wide. Won't be fishing the river any time soon. bn 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big Neil Posted November 14, 2022 Author Share Posted November 14, 2022 Only minimal impact on my place, so far. Because I am half way down a hill I have had the back room and my pottery studio flooded half a dozen times so far. The biggest worries for me are the inability to travel anywhere (like Sydney) and (potentially) the likelihood of massive fish kills when all the black water goes back into the main river systems. That has the potential to be catastrophic. Let's hope not. bn 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Bob, won't come to that where I live as I am half way up a hill. Concerned about the ability to travel away from the region though. Spot flooding happening all over the place. Still hopeful of getting to Sydney and the Hunter Valley in December. Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
