Cooktown area is copping a flogging, I will make for an interesting Cape York Trip this year if the weather keep going the way it has been so far.and yet people are still driving through/past the closed gates on the CREB track and getting stuck.

Cheers Sol.  yeah the wet tropical coast is always hit and miss , and most events are topography related rather than a wide spread system .

It's so good too see rain to the west, both North and South of Chillagoe .


cheers
