Wagga Wagga, in New South Wales, Australia, has record-breaking floods.

"The N.S.W flood crisis - in places, the worst in almost 160 years - could continue for more than a month."

188 millimetres in the week is over seven inches!

Wagga Wagga is changing its name to Spider Spider!

A house is surrounded by spiderwebs next to flood waters in Wagga Wagga March 6, 2012.

Actually, I think that is out towards one of Wagga's exurbs, Gumly Gumly.

We have some good news! Record-breaking rain in the Central Valley according to the Fresno Bee.

"Meanwhile, a winter storm warning is in effect until 11 a.m. today at elevations above 4,000 feet. More than a foot of snow had fallen in some mountain areas, and wind gusts in the Valley reached 50 mph."

If you watched the Whitney webcam yesterday, the mountain was socked in. Some of us thought the camera was broken or that someone had thrown a grey blanket over it.
