Title: 'Great Western awash after two-day deluge' - news report, 13 January 2015 Post by: Chris from Nailsea on January 13, 2015, 19:58:29 From the Stawell Times (http://www.stawelltimes.com.au/story/2812947/great-western-awash-after-two-day-deluge/):
Quote Great Western awash after two-day deluge () Great Western General Store owner Tracey McCartney captured this image of the floodwater as it lapped at the front door of a home in Great Western. Some areas have been overwhelmed, while others still await the weekend^s promised rainfall. The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) had forecast days of rain and even the possibility of flooding, but for much of the region, that has failed to eventuate. Parched pockets of Great Western were by far the wettest places as more than 50 millimetres fell into rain gauges across the town during a two-day deluge. That's the Stawell in Australia, not the Stawell in Somerset. ;) :D ;D This page is printed from the "Coffee Shop" forum at http://gwr.passenger.chat which is provided by a customer of Great Western Railway.
