@shamikal Yes it is, however the very heavy rainfall extended to coastal areas just east of Nowra. Greenwell point ( 10kms east of here)copped 180mms during the same afternoon, not as much compared to Shellharbour but still significant.

@pingtang666 Which part of Nowra? I lived in Shell Cove/Shell Harbour for 6 months. My husband worked in Nowra and its like 1 hour drive away, that's at least 60 km far?

Great video! we got nothing like that here in Nowra.A a tad too far inland.And by a tad,I only mean a matter of 5-10kms.
