Streamflows - June 2008

Rainfall received mid-June did not result in significant surface run-off, and the stream flow situation across the state has worsened since May. 

At the end of the month, stream flows at the representative gauging stations were below average across the entire state.  Flows below 10% of the long-term average for June were recorded at 18 of the 28 representative stations across Victoria.

The Yarra River at Millgrove experienced the highest flows of the 28 representative stations, recording 36% of the long-term average for June. 

At all of the 28 representative stations, stream flows were equal to or lower than the average flow recorded in the 1982/83 drought.

The following are graphs for the 28 streamflow guaging stations, showing long-term average daily streamflow, recorded minimum streamflow, streamflow in the 1982/83 drought and current daily streamflow.
