Before dawn on the day an enormous flash flood flattened a rural village, emergency services feared the weather bureau's warnings were inadequate and rushed to issue evacuation orders.
A flood described by survivors as an "inland tsunami" razed much of the village of Eugowra, in central-western NSW, on the morning of November 14, 2022, killing locals Diane Smith, 60, and Ljubisa "Les" Vugec, 85.
