    Se Non E Vero, E Molto Ben Trovato Issue 440 March 2020 $2 Community news for Wollombi, Laguna and surrounding districts 1 Issue 440 - Our Own News – March 2020 View from the Ridge Top - Is it 1929 all over again?! Monthly Rainfall in the Wollombi Valley Source: BoM Climate Data (2019), Ridgetop Consulting (2020) Monthly rainfall for the Wollombi Valley is highlighted above for years 1928, 1929, 2019 and 2020 (includes a 200mm conservative guesstimate for February 2020). Detailed analysis of rainfall ahead of three key bushfire periods was undertaken for 1929, 1993/4 and 2019/20. In all key fire events, there was very limited Spring rainfall followed by delayed Summer rains. In 1929, this late Summer rain arrived in a major rain event that began on 6th February. This was after the terrible bushfires of 1929 (reported in last month’s OON). In 1994 (not shown), the rains arrived in the January and a more reasonable amount in February. On average, the most rainfall arrives during Summer hence it was reasonable to predict the strong wet end to our current Summer. It was the prolonged period of limited rain that likely helped extend the recent fire activity. Interestingly as February 2020 rainfall unfolds it appears we are following the pattern for 1929 (including relevance of 6th February) unless even more rain arrives and then an event like the 1949 flood beckons! Next month we will explore flooding events in the Valley. If anyone has any access to detailed historical flood information for Wollombi please let the author know.

SIGNAL scores represent an average across habitats and samples. Macroinvertebrate colour coding has been applied to identify sites considered to be in good to very good condition (blue and green), fair condition or disturbed condition (yellow) and poor to very poor or severely to extremely impaired condition (red and pink). EC colour coding has been based on the general criteria for the salinity of irrigation water in the Hunter Valley (Creelman 1994, Croft and Associates 1983) where: blue represents low salinity (<280 µS/cm), green medium salinity (280–800 µS/cm), yellow high salinity (800–2300 µS/cm), orange very high salinity (2300– 5500 µS/cm); and red extreme salinity waters (>5500 µS/cm).
