Here is an update of the current state of the Ovens River near Wangaratta. Thankfully the flood was nowhere near as bad as authorities were prepared for. The river is not quite at flood level in Wangaratta and is still rising. It has around 80cm to go before it reaches minor flood level. Personally, I will be surprised if it makes it that high. Hopefully the worst has passed us now for the Ovens River and it starts to drop down and clear up pretty quickly. In the past I have witnessed sustained periods of dirty water in the ovens River following summer flash flooding. I am really hoping that does not happen again!
