The partner of a Tasmanian newspaper delivery driver who was killed in floodwaters told him "you're know we're going to die don't you?" moments before he was swept away.
Peter Watson, 63, was one of three people who died in separate incidents when a deluge hit the island state in mid-2016.
An inquest on Wednesday heard from Karen Cassidy who was with Mr Watson on the early morning June 7 newspaper run when their van got into trouble near Evandale in the state's north.
