How deep is the flash floods in Australia?

There has been just one flash flood in Australia in 2011. This wave, which came down a mountainside from the city of Toowoomba at the top of the range, reached heights of 8 metres, according to witnesses. The remainder of the floods have been slow-onset floods, quite different to flash floods. They have varied in depth from a few millimetres to many metres deep - deep enough to engulf two-storey homes.


Is Gundagai beside the Murrumbidgee River?

Gundagai is most certainly beside the Murrumbidgee River. Explorer Charles Sturt identified a spot near Gundagai as the best crossing point of the river for coaches and drovers. Gundagai gradually grew up along the Murrumbidgee River at the river crossing, and by 1852, there were around 300 people living along the river flats. Gundagai was the scene of major flooding in 1852 which swept away much of the town, killing 89. After another, higher flood in 1853, the town was relocated to its current site on the hill, Mount Parnassus, above the river.


What is the famous landmark in Gundagai?

The landmark is the Dog on the Tuckerbox, an historical monument situated near Gundagai in southern New South Wales, Australia.Celebrated in Australian folklore, poetry, and song as being "nine miles from Gundagai", the Dog on the Tuckerbox sits approximately 5 miles, or eight kilometres, from Gundagai. Gundagai's Dog on the Tuckerbox originated out of an incident from the mid-1800s, when some travellers' bullock carts became stuck in the mud near Gundagai. The bullockies were unable to free their carts, and everything ended up coated in mud. The romanticised version of the story goes that the bullocky departed for help, and the dog stayed to faithfully guard his master's tuckerbox (food box). However, the reality is that the dog was in fact relieving itself directly above the tuckerbox, which was the only thing not submerged by the mud.
