The La Niña weather pattern has devastated communities differently. For some, it's been too much rain; for others, not enough.

Among them is Ruth Chaplain of Wynberg Station, 30 kilometres outside of Cloncurry, who is still waiting for the big wet to arrive."It's very hit and miss. Some people have had decent rain, but a large majority haven't."

"With a La Niña year, we see that rainfall in many areas tends to be higher than average," Mr Hadley said. Mr Hadley said sporadic rainfall was a common feature of thunderstorms that develop in northern Australia, where the landscape could change as quickly as the weather rolled in. Grazier Jay Hughes of Cannum Downs near Richmond received 123 millimetres in a single rainfall event in November."We've had a pretty dry sort of a spell here. We've only had about 60 odd millimetres since June," he said.

"The country had a little bit of pick in it, but there wasn't enough rain in it to keep it going, now this rain will really kick it along," Mr Hughes said.across New South Wales and Victoria, more than 40 per cent of Queensland remained drought declared, a climate situation North West graziers struggled to reconcile"It's really hard to fathom, and it's a real period of instability and unpredictability," Ms Harrington said.
