There was a deluge of rain across Eastern Australia last week with many parts of the Cobar Shire also getting a dumping from the heavy rain band that passed through.
According to the Bureau of Meteorology, in town we had 64.8mm since 9am last Wednesday with more than half of that recorded on the weekend with 21.8mm falling up until 9am Saturday and a further 16.6mm by 9am Sunday.
Heavy rain was also recorded around the Cobar Shire.
