More like a raging torrent. I have had to go a different way to my water aerobics class as the major road out of my suburb is closed westbound due to flooding. We had more than 34mm yesterday and probably similar already today. This creek is still in it's banks and hopefully will continue to be ok. I haven't ever seen it above the bridge and would be very worried if that happened. I will post a video of the creek as well.
I would love to go for a drive to some of the other areas but it would be a bit foolhardy in the constant rain.
All the best to those people battling floods throughout Victoria and Melbourne.
On a more sombre note it is the 7th anniversary of my mother's death. I went to say hi to her on my recent NZ trip.

Part of the Darling River about 7 kms upstream from Wilcannia. The channel was already full enough for water to inundate adjoining low-lying parts of the flood plain, but the flood peak was still about two weeks away when this picture was taken.

Another diptych illustrating the impact of the La Niña "Big Wet". This view shows the Darling River at Wilcannia in far western NSW, Australia, about 100 kms upstream from Lake Menindee.

The Menindee Weir and rail bridge where the Broken Hill-Sydney railway line skirts Menindee Lake and crosses the regulated channel connecting the lake to other lake storages upstream. High water levels persist following widespread La Niña rains and Darling River flood flows during 2022. NSW Far West.

October, start of the wet season 2021-2022 in Australia, Queensland.

Swollen with flood during the end of the wet season, the Mt Borradaile billabong drains into the Cooper and out to sea.

Seen at Indooroopilly shopping centre this morning due to the low created by Cyclone Debbie.
The shopping centre was very busy due to all the schools being shut so mums and their children were shopping.
