[QUOTE="Magilla, post: 202371, member: 3393"] Daintree recorded 606mm in 24 hours back in 1996 but that was the official measurement. When we lived up there all the locals said they recorded 48" for the same period. In November 2006 our swimming pool was about 8" from the top when I received a phone call from my sister, at the same time it started to rain. While talking to her the pool overflowed and there was a 2" overflow pipe 3" from the top of the pool as well. That was less than an hour and probably about 10" of rain, hard to believe until you see it. It is all relative though, the country up there can handle it. The Daintree runs clear even in flood. Even an inch of rain can cause big problems in areas not used to it. [/QUOTE]
