Owing to sever storms in far northwest NSW overnight, transmission towers have been destroyed leaving the area without power. Could be some time until full power restored.
Menindee,
Wilcannia. I would suggest if heading out that way that you
check with the NSW Power Authority for full details.
Macca.

Great pics Ivan. Glad I wasn't doing your washing though.
Hard to comprehend the power that could demolish a tower like that.
