Avery relaxing vid listening to the hum of the diesel instead of dreadful music. Most tourists wouldn’t witness what you have recorded. Thanks for sharing. 👍🏻🙏🏽🦘

My husband and I were living in Alice when the worst flooding in 100 years hit the town. It was Easter of 1988. We lived in Yirara College, 10kms from town. It was a bit scary, but also great to see the Todd River flowing. Our son's name is Todd, but he was born in Adelaide, 9 months before we moved to Alice. My son is now a truck driver, and he usually does the Adelaide to Melbourne run. Now with the floods in WA, he's started doing the Adelaide to Perth run. Watching your videos now gives me an appreciation for what he does. I have now subscribed to your channel. Thank you for giving us such quality videos. 😊

Rain clouds and mud in a place known for blue sky and dust. What a beautiful land we live in. Great footage. Many thanks

Mate, what a spectacular video. Central Australia is such a magnificent part of the world. Thanks for sharing.

Great footage. I especially loved the shots of the Heavitree Gap. This is what I've always loved about driving - the changes, the seasons, the weather. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Beautiful country!!! Hugs from Brazil.

Man I so much wish to have that Adelaide to Darwin roadtrip. Watching from Kenya, Africa.

Excellent video love the drive me and wife went to Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺 3 years ago and loved it its cool to see the northern territory!!!!!

Thanks for showing the world our beautiful country mate!

Wow that's a lot of water. The outback farmers will be loving it. Another Great video. Stay safe

Thanks for posting enjoyed watching never new Alice Springs gets flooded like that

Beautiful places...

Nice vid ,the never ending changing views from the truck is amazing. Cheers 🍻

Love your video beautiful country I come from western Cape York Peninsula Qld

Fantastic info/video of the flood event,bet the countryside smelt unreal also after a good soak.Regards buzz

Happy to watch your videos anytime thank you for sharing

Takes me back to the 80’s when the town centre was in flood as well. Nice vid & good to see the bulldog up front as well 👍

I remember 2001, lived out in the Tanami Desert 460km NW of Alice Springs. Beginning of February we had 200mm of rain. It was Anzac Day (25/04) before we able to get into Alice Springs in the Landcruiser and then back home. Then 10 weeks later we left for a 3 week trip, 1st 110kms going towards the Tanami Track was a breeze, 1 hour. Stopped and chatted to a friend who was going to look after our place and dogs. He told us there was a bit of rain about and the roads were wet and muddy. Headed 50kms to Yuendumu and the Tanami track and then down to Tilmouth Well Roadhouse. 140kms and 4.5 hours later, yep it was just a tad wet.

That Todd River footage was amazing, so much water.

Finally, YT has good recommendation. It's beautiful to have heavy rains at A'Springs! Subscribed. Please keep making great videos you guys 😊

That was very pleasant to watch , daunting I’m sure for yourselves but very relaxing for me .🐾❤️👍

Great video Mick, especially seeing all the water on the road and the difference it made on your return journey. We were in Alice Springs in July and it was bone dry. Keep the videos coming! We love road trains!

Another good vid really showing how much water there was around. Glad to see you avoided the trenches at the roadworks too.

Wow, great footage. A beaut sunset too. I recall seeing similar scenes in October 2010 driving from Kings Canyon back to Alice on the main road after 80mm of rain fell. The amazing thing is that all those rivers just run out into the desert and peter out. They don't run to the ocean of course, and there's no lake.

Thanks for these pictures. A long time since I was through there last.

That was awesome to watch.

I've not seen your videos before, These are great. I've subscribed. Thank you

Great video Mick. Thanks for sharing your journey 💜

0:06 Hi sally - great to watch you enjoying the view while he (in the background) jabbers on a bit more.

Really great video from you mick.tough job..challenging road too..thanks sharing the video mick..have a good journey and save drive.from MALAYSIA with love..

once again it proves you are a master at this video job ...i love them

Another great video, very interesting to see the Todd flooded and the difference on your trip south, safe travels

Thank you-much appreciated.

Thank you. Amazing stuff.

I absultly loved this video it reminds of may trips i,ve done to the territory and seeing the todd in flood witch i,ve seen many times ,one day i,ll get back up there again .

That was fascinating, thank you!

Great vid, thankyou. You know the folklore which says if you see the Todd flood 3 times you'll never leave. It's true, I saw it flood twice and just managed to get to Tennant Creek and then got stuck in the Goldfields Hotel for 2 years but that is another story.

Great video Mick its nice to see it can rain in Aus after 3 years of drought

Don’t see water everywhere up there very often, what a sight. Most unusual in November and not caused by a cyclone either. Watch out in January or February when cyclones will be about and the ground has already had a soaking. They will have fat cattle on Curtin Springs Station which is not far from Ayers Rock. Jeff

Your lucky to live in such a beautiful country

Good to see that you drove up the center when you could see it was safer. Many will just stay in one lane then get stuck

Just come across your channel and subscribed straight away cheers 👍🍻🇦🇺

Fantastic video, thanks, .. I didn't know you were into Trucks , I was for 30 years.

Great vid Mick, enjoy your content.

Thank you Mick

I've never seen water in the Todd River. Great video.

Excellent, merci pour cette vidéo

It was amazing to see, I’ve been lucky enough to see two floods in the year I have been here but last weeks was bigger than the one in December last year. I would have loved to have been at one of the gorges

It's rare to see this much waters in the Northern Territory. Also, Australia has a shortage of waters. I don't understand why these water aren't collected for usage in the dry season. After all, these waters are just going out to seas. By the way, awesome video, thanks for sharing.

Awesome video Mick, I recon they need to do some roadworks on the roadwork bypass..lol.

Good video.🌧

Great video.

3:31 I think there's a chunk of road missing from the left side. You wouldn't get that turbulence if the bitumen was still there.

Nice video thanks

Cool! You don't see things like that very often in Alice Springs.

Great info

They used to say if you've seen water flow in the Todd river 3 times, you were a local🤔 Regards from the UK👍

Good video Bro

Great footage i wonder how many folks know there's only 1 way in to town?

Mick Dundee cheers from Canada

Safe journey on your way 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

Running a car or pickup like yours through water you showed does the undercarriage get damaged and rusted and on the inside do the carpets get wet.

Great footage. Unbelievable amount of water. How are you keeping your windscreen so spotlessly clean??

Truck and trailers would of needed a good bath back at the depot. Do you get into the Territory with the van much Mick?

Every time I see the flooding of the ma I n highway to Darwin it reminds me of the shockingly bad engineers in Austrslia cannot build a decent road way above the flood line

That's us with lil Gary car standing cause we had to cross it Me, Elijah and JGD

Who would think that watching a truck driving in a straight line would be interesting, but it is. Quick couple of questions: I'm guessing you're running an 18 speed, is it an auto or manual? and when you are fully loaded, punching through the ferocious winds that occur out there do you still push through in the normal cruising gear or drop it down a half gear or so?

It is a monsoon season in summer of thunderstorms caused flash floods in Alice Springs in the Australia’s Northern Territory.

Wow, Alice on Sea

What was the water like around Katherine. Any flooding.

Raining on the rock

What about the future rains ? Seems it needed to be raised at the stretch ?

Man, you really gotta give a hand to Australian Manufacturers. They built their equipment to be tough. Would love to own a prime mover someday. Keep up the videos! 🤙🏼

Wonder if there are any crocs out and about??

Hope your all safe in Alice Springs Kirrily and Matt Whitehead

I remember heading up to Alice springs in 2003 that time the todd was dry as a nuns nastie 🤣

I can't find a reference to prove it but I believe in 2000 the Hugh River rose enough to flood the Orange Creek Station homestead.

Up hill all the way! Enjoyable to watch.

Why are you driving so fast thought the water?

Hay Man if you come in to Darwin pop in to the Gilbert's depto I would love to meet you

Strange, where are those flood water come from?

👍👍

I remember the highway before the road was sealed

I hope someone in Australian govt. are taking this opportunity to get the tankers out and get them filled and shipped to drought areas instead of letting it soak into the ground.

Pretty much the whole of Australia got flooded and it is streaming with life right now

Those road work detours are trouble for anything but a truck or four wheel drive. If they’re going to divert traffic, they’d better make it safe.

noticed you didn't stop for broken down car?

WATER 💦 Back To Life'!

Can only imagine the mossies. Scotch Greys as big as rabbits

Nothin like a road train. Nothin nature throws at em can ever stop em

10:25 ? 4k me - is that a HILL ahead - or a mirage? Nah can't be a hill as that's Australia - land of the flat "everything".

Always amazes me with Alice Springs they will show floods but they won't show the human atrocities happening there every day

That should wash some turds away

They could have had a real regatta.

Floods two year in a row! Its the climate catastrophe~!
