For the most accurate and updated information on the flooding in Outback Central and Western Queensland and now South Australia, there is only one place to monitor, my new Facebook Page
2025 Outback Floods.
The site is full of videos, images and the latest first hand information from locals on the ground.
This is an example that you will not see anywhere else…..
The
Cooper Creek at
Innamincka as at 7am this morning, Saturday 5 April was 8.25m over the causeway and rising, with the flood peak body from
Windorah still not here yet.

The level at Cullyamurra was 8.25 at 7 am and is now at 8,39 at noon, so still rising. It will still have to rise another 2m to match the 2010 flood in height. It looks like a lot of water is still above
Windorah so the actual flood volume may be more than 2010 so 2025 will last longer than 15 years ago and have more water even if the peaks at Nappa and Cully are less.
As far as
Innamincka causeway goes see
pic below. Even subtracting 1.9m , it is still
well over 6m above. Nevertheless the
Cooper Creek Ferry will have to be dragged out of mothballs to be operational by mid June. Time for another ride on this iconic craft. See you there!

Information and photos on my site are from
Innamincka residents are up to date information and yesterday water levels were only 800mm below the Nappa Merri
bridge and is still to come. My 3 local
Innamincka contacts are all saying the same thing……these levels are rising very fast.
The other day at
Windorah the water was 2.18m over the
bridge and was still rising and will still be days away from
Innamincka.
Every Shire Mayor and grazier that I have spoken to are saying one thing….these are the biggest floods in living history for the Channel Country.
