Finally heavy rains have drenched drought stricken areas of NSW with well over 100mm of rain falling in some regions and more predicted. Some rivers are in flood with a potential flood alert for other rivers. The Hunter Valley and the North West Slopes as well as parts of north eastern NSW are also to be affected by heavy rains.
This all is the result of Tropical Cyclone Laurence. That severe tropical cyclone made all the way inland with continued tropical cyclone warnings which is very unusual.

Yes – certainly the most widespread flooding event in quite some time. About an 800km stretch of East Coast was affected. In some of the pics you will see caravans caught in the flood waters – this is in the most flood prone part of Lismore but there is some ongoing argument about why the residents were not evacuated in time.
For those interested in all the floods which have hit Lismore – which is probably the most flood-prone city in the country – have a look at this report:

Those images you have show how spectacular and messy the flooding was – certainly a huge damage bill. What is amazing about this even was the widespread nature of the major floods across southeast Queensland and North East NSW region. Certainly the most significant flood event in years for that part fo the world. And what about the Coffs Harbour and Bellingen region – 3 floods in one year! And it si only May!
