check out the graph near the bottom which talks about river flow.
You could completely cover then entire east coast from melb to cairns and out to the borders with NT and SA and you would still not even be 1/3 of the land mass.

....and Melbourne only gets half the mean annual rainfall of Sydney but who'd believe you if you told them ???

Drive from Adelaide to Perth and count the fast flowing rivers - ???

We have a couple of years of exceptional rain fall in some parts of this country and it's easy to forget the years and years of extremely low rainfall and drought that most have endured. When you take the long term average across Australia over a multitude of years,even when factoring in the excessive rainfall on the east coast , the outlook generally is still that Oz is getting hotter and drier....

Because he's whipped up all this fury about climate change and predicted the dams would be all empty in a couple of years, etc, etc.
All a crock IMO

What's happening is what the scientists have predicted. Wilder and more fluctuations in weather patterns.
As a scientist he looks at the science, reviews it and forms an opinion. Just like I imagine you have. Yeah scumbag hey.

I'm glad you agree. He's one of the dangerous ones.

I remember reading a report( Sorry no link) on core sampling of the Brain Coral(They collect sediment from the river run offs) on the Great Barrier Reef a couple of years ago that went along the lines, it is a dry period that the east coast of Australia is going through atm.
Records from these samples show a lot wetter periods have happened in cycles and we haven't seen nuthin yet.
My trade as a Carpenter may come in handy building ark. ;D

I remember a long time ago( I'm talking 30 odd years ago or more), a bloke around Wardell, Broadwater, Woodburn somewhere, built a Concrete Boat.
So there, you still might have a trade yet ;D
My father was amazed at it and use to take us for a drive past it.

Most of the dams in WA are less than 50% capacity

A bit off topic, but when I lived at Fingal Bay, Port Stephens a few years ago, a concrete hulled yacht was grounded after the owner thought he was entering the harbour and ended up on the Fingal Spit.
Two Coastal Patrol boats couldn`t pull it off, neither could a crane as it kept sinking in the sand and as the owner couldn`t afford a tug it was eventually broken into pieces and carted away.
It was the yacht`s maiden voyage and I think it had only sailed from Newcastle.
