Just deciding whether to pack my waders or not. Ironic thing is we are having a dry winter with water shortages here. Have been watching the reports from NSW and Vic, pretty grim. For the river level, this link seems to give you up to date info, height is now climbing. http://www.bom.gov.au/fwo/IDN60237/I...2003.plt.shtml regards, Richard

I was thinking the same thing Ryan, Corowa is only 2hrs from here and half of my workplace has gone to Wangratta to help.

Plenty of water over the road after the Corowa airport, but still open. Water covered the paddock where the official line up takes place. It is not the river levels that are the problem, but the run off, the Murray was dropped to very low level in the lead up to this rain event.
Murray Valley Highway had water flowing over it in many places, but still remained open between Wodonga and Corowa. Rain free day today will let the run off find its way, another 100mm tomorrow to top it up, but at least I won't be going to work through it this time.... Rich.

The reports from people who are in the area indicate that there is a lot of water around. I have had a number of phone calls from people asking if the event will be cancelled. It would only be cancelled if the Corowa Shire contacted us and said not to come to town. With the amount of money we bring into town they will be welcoming us into town.
Two years ago when we had Year of the Jeep I remember the rainfall prior to the event and even over the first few days. We ended up with a record number of vehicles in town (266). If we are unable to use the paddock at Corowa Airport there will be alternatives we can look at for the photoshoot. One week today and I will be there.
