Staring at a gully drain clogged with leaves and debris can be frustrating.
But with a few tools and some elbow grease, you can tackle this messy problem.
Just picture it: a clear drain that channels water away, saving you from potential flooding!
Grab your gloves and trowel, and let’s get to work.

Olinda Creek enters Lillydale Lake through this old timber bridge. The construction fencing is because the Shire Of Yarra Ranges, which superseded the old Shire Of Lillydale, is excavating a big extension of the lake. It was built to stop the creek flooding Maroondah Highway. With the climate becoming more stormy, and floods bigger and more frequent, the Shire isn’t taking any chances!

Ah yes, because nothing screams "serious flood disaster prevention" quite like building pixelated dams in a blocky children's game 🌧️💧. Clearly, the Japanese government has cracked the code on disaster management by trading sandbags for diamond pickaxes 🪓🎮. Next up: #Fortnite lessons on fire safety 🔥🏃♂️.

Results of our dig looking for Romans in Edmonton... resoundingly negative!
Despite early C20th digs showing Roman industry less than 100m away, they evidently kept clear of this spot next to Salmon's Brook.
Disappointing for us but probably good news for the planned flood relief ponds which we now know will not impact any Roman archaeology.

https://phys.org/news/2025-03-argentina-port-city-destroyed-massive.html
"National Security Minister Patricia Bullrich said Bahia Blanca was "destroyed." " From a storm which brought as much rain in a few hours on Friday as the town receives in a year.
Looking at Google Earth, the whole city is blocks after blocks after blocks of 2-storey buildings without any parks anywhere.
The last storm in December 2023 also left collapsed houses and roads in ruins.
Maybe, just maybe, rebuilding efforts everywhere should start to include #sustainability considerations: build 6-storey houses, with 35m2 of heated/cooled living space per person, plus 15m2 per additional person, and add parks.
What good is science if its results are ignored, eh? -

In good news, cities are learning how to deal with heavy rainfall so it doesn't flood the streets. 🙂
Vancouver restored a buried creek to the surface, and added plants and trees along its course to help the rain soak in.
In October's atmospheric river, the restored creek absorbed 150% the expected rain, with no overflow. Rainways like this help refill the water table and prevent flooding.https://thetyee.ca/News/2024/11/05/Rainway-Vs-Atmospheric-River/

LONG POST ON #ELNINO / #FLOODING
As we hear of the effects of the #ClimateEmergency round the world, and see #flooding in #Norway I am reminded of #StormDesmond that hit #Cumbria between 5th & 6th Dec 2015. In 48 hours #Thirlmere in #LakeDistrict recorded 405mm of rainfall in combination with severe gales up to 81mph. This was an El Nino year.It was the 4th major storm of the autumn. The ground and the lakes were already saturated.

#wetlands are not only crucial for #biodiversity and #nature, they are also critical to ensuring that we have adequate clean and safe drinking #water, and for #FloodPrevention. Almost 85%of them have been lost in Southern Ontario and the GTA. We must continue to fight the plans that Doug Ford and his developer cronies have to destroy even more of them, and to develop the Greenbelt. #onpoli https://environmentaldefence.ca/2020/11/11/crucial-protect-ontarios-wetlands/
