I thought you said that there was a Dan Murphy's close by.

Anyhow I hear the rain has stopped in Cairns. We've got it here.

Mark does the late cyclones have an impact on the timing for the roads to open and general access.. how long typically would it take
for things to get back to seasonal norms?? just wondered how much deeper the creeks will be in July  :)

Cheers

The damage was done from Cooktown south so all roads to the Cape have not been affected. The rivers at the beginning of the wet season are always up but do subside pretty quick. If you are not doing the OTL you won't cross any creeks without bridges already in place.
