Warragamba Dam

Many people braved the pouring rain yesterday and headed off to Warragamba Dam to see for the first time in 14 yrs its overspilling after days of continuing heavy rain. It hit its full capacity and the drum gates were opened since Friday. It became a spectator event here.

It was hard to find a parking spot when we arrived at Warragamba so we decided to park the car in town centre and walked from there. Photo below was taken on our way to the viewing platform across the dam to get the best view available as public access to the dam wall remains restricted.
The viewing platform was full of people.
And the photos below were the only two good pictures of the spillway that I have taken for the rest of the photos were blurry.
