Murray At Highest Level In More Than 100 Years At Echuca As East Coast Preps For More Floods

Australia’s East Coast is facing more serious damage, with the Murray River reaching its highest level in more than 100 years on the Victorian and NSW border while Northern NSW prepares for major flooding. The Murray River tipped 94.8 meters above mean sea level at the Victorian town of Echuca — which is just across the river from the NSW town of Moama. The river’s expected to reach a peak of at least 95 meters over the weekend, per The Sydney Morning Herald
