#Flashflooding hits #Mildura after 100mm of rain in 24 hours.

Mildura residents have woken to flash #flooding and soaked paddocks after almost 150 millimetres of rain in 36 hours.

The #StateEmergencyService has received more than 230 calls for help #statewide since Friday, including 100 in the Mildura area.

#SES state duty officer Kate Turner said call-outs on Monday morning were predominantly related to flash flooding after 4am.

"Particularly in the last 12 hours or so, we've had a big uptick in the number of #flood requests for assistance that we've had, and for #buildingdamage as well from that rain that's come through," she said.

"It was a relatively settled night until people started getting up and moving around for work and noticing the kind of damage that's come through and the amount of water that's come through overnight as well."

The rainfall over the past 24 hours has broken the record for Mildura's wettest March day.

A total of 83mm had fallen since 9am on Sunday, breaking the record of 65.8mm, set the day prior.

The SES said #sandbags were being prepared for residents.

"In a pinch, the best thing you can do is [use] something like a pillow case and some garden soil," Ms Turner said.

"It sounds a bit silly but it really is a matter of what you can get on hand as quickly as you possibly can.

"Failing that, it's things like moving your valuables as high up as possible ... really making sure if you've got water coming towards your property, that you've got a plan and you know what you're going to do if it does get worse."

The rain is expected to ease this evening. #auspol #weather #Victoria

#Eugene and Western #Oregon here in the #PNW has been receiving solid rainfall for over 24 hours, with 3.5" here. Many urban creeks are bankfull and causing some minor flooding.

After bailing water out, we have stopped the flow. #Sandbags to the rescue. Running dehumidifier now to pull out as much moisture as possible.

Long story I will share someday as to why this is happening.

The pull I had in my leg a few weeks ago seems to be clearing up nicely
Fingers crossed I don't overdo it. But the #sandbags are moving really nicely tonight. I also think I'm getting my technique locked in maybe possibly. So that's been nice also. #gym

What #DEI is really about is #allhandsondeck against #climateemergency and other problems facing us. We don't have the option of letting the "brilliant white guys" figure it out for the rest of us. (After all that option has worked soo well, so far.🙄 ) We need everyone to grab some good #sensor data, #sandbags, #protest signs, mops, #telescopes or whatever #tools & #resources you have at your disposal to create a future for everyone.

To summarize;

Metal feed scoop, 6 quarts, proper handle
$25 and available at any farm store, feed store, many handware stores, and online.
No plastic.
No shovels.
Act now before Weather Channel's imaginary hurricanes actually show up.

You can also use it in non-emergencies for shoveling catfood or dogfood out of the bag. Or birdseed. Or, perhaps, actual chicken feed.

Off-label use for bailing water.

Ok, now that there are no hurricanes right now, and you might actually listen...

If you are in an area prone to flooding, and you anticipate having to fill sandbags, go get a metal feed scoop. They look like this:

For the record, I do not(!) suggest, that blocking humanitarian food- supplies to Gaza is in any way shape or form acceptable.
