More Rain and floods in Nth NSW

Wow what a ghastly summer it has been. We are in Harrington in the Manning river area just north of Taree. (the manning Valley area) It has been raining ALL night and continues today. It is very muggy and my face is dripping....there are evacuations happening north of us, and flood warnings. we are very safe in the caravan park and nowhere near the river ... so we will be staying tucked up here until the warnings are over. There are many road closures Oxley highway, Pacific highway Gwyder Highway so nowhere to go. Fortunately we are not in a rush and do not have far to get to Ray at Kyogle. They have had heaps of rain also. Ballina very badly hit. Truly amazing weather.
SO I have changed sheets and will do some tidying then more reading and perhaps watch a movie later. Am right into my book which is Batavia by Peter Fitzsimon. Lucky to be here with friends. We will dine together.
We are safe and sound.oh a nice little breeze is wafting through.
Good luck to all those in the Rotto swim.
I see a cyclone is up north wa!!!
Love Pen
