Dam levels 04/03/2012.wmv

On Sunday March 4th 2012, I visited three of Sydney's dams on the same day. After weeks of rain, and the last few days being particularly heavy it was forecast that all of the
dams would be over flowing. Warragamba Dam got a lot of attention when it spilled over on Friday night. But what about Cordeaux, Cataract and Woronora? Three dams two different
levels. Both Cordeaux and Cataract where at about 0.1 metres above capacity and spilling over. Woronora was at 4.7 metres under capacity! What's going on? Answers may be found here

Pykes Creek Reservoir - Melbourne Victoria

Driving to Pykes Creek Reservoir - Melbourne Victoria on 21.5.2018
It was a very windy ,cold and rainy Day but I decided to go for a drive after work. It was quiet a challenge to get to this place driving from Bacchus Marsh because the weather was bad and i didnt even follow any navigation or maps .
I kind of knew its somewhere there. Finally arrived and I was impressed with its size but believe its little short of water being depleted by recent droghts in Victoria.

Pykes Creek Reservoir is also a great place for boating,fishing & kayaking and next time i will film more in better weather.

I hope you enjoyed it and Please Subscribe to my channel Thankyou :)
