Cleve SES and CFS were called out early Sunday morning where the Windittie Creek had cut across the road, blocking access and leaving mud and debris when it cleared.

The SES also attended a Cleve residence to secure a shed roof against the winds which reached speeds of 59km per hour over the weekend.

Ashley Smith, of Cleve, reported rains of 108mm on Saturday and Sunday which cut through two dams, leaving half metre gutters in the dam walls.

At the Yeldulknie Weir, water levels are higher than they have been since the early 1990s. The weir holds 740megalitres (164 million gallons) and once supplied the Arno Bay and Cowell communities with water. Today the weir is a recreational area with barbecues and public toilets, maintained by the Lions Club of Cleve and districts.

While the township of Cleve measured more than 80mm of rain on Saturday and Sunday, Kimba received a little over 50mm, Buckleboo 25mm and Cowell 15mm.
