It is raining over large parts of the south-east, there is finally a good rainfall outlook after years of drought, and there is a flood of water heading down the Darling River.
So good news generally, but batten down the hatches if you are in the south-east this weekend.
Key points:
- Cold, wet conditions are expected to continue over the south-east, bringing welcome follow-up rain for inland areas
- The Darling River is flowing thanks to heavy rain earlier in the year and is expected to reach the Murray by the end of the month
- BOM’s three-month outlook suggests most of the country has an above 80 per cent chance of above-average rainfall
Rain is still falling after days of widespread falls and the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) has issued several severe weather warnings.
