AtTraining storm line south of Goulburn, NSW just on sunset on the 26th December 2023 led to flash flooding. . Followed thebstorm south to Lake Bathurst and Tarago, NSW where flash flooding started to appear. On my turn back north (to go home) water had risen so rapidly that I was now stuck at Lake Bathurst with water at a creek crossing. I had just crossed this section just 20mins earlier which was dry. Now it was just below my knees when I did a test walk. It was flowing very rapidly and that was my concern. You can hear the flowing water in the video. I waited almost an hour and it did not drop, so I had to add about 100kms to the journey home by heading towards Canberra and Federal Hwy. Bureau of Meteorology had a severe warning on this storm that included "Intense Rainfall". Warranted I agree. The Mulwaree River that is just east of the road between Lake Bathurst and Tarago and is normally just a small stream that you could almost jump across. In the moonlight some sections of the river appeared 200-300 metres wide.
