Taylor Point
It has been a wet week following Cyclone Olga last Sunday, with 254mm recorded at the airport. Yesterday was particularly wet, and I only ventured out to get some bread. Despite consulting the radar to try to pick a gap in the rain, I got caught in a downpour on the way back. It was, however, nice to see some heavy wet season rain.
Today we’re seeing a bit of sunshine and a fair bit of blue sky, so I went for a wander around Taylor Point. King tides occur at this time of year, and a 3.44 meter high was due at 10:08. Around at Taylor Point the track was cut by the water, and the beaches were totally submerged. The coconut palms at the end of the track were experiencing more erosion around their bases, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see one or two fall in the not too distant future.
