Monsoon causes heavy rainfall, flooding in Darwin suburbs

Wild weather has lashed the Top End, with heavy rainfalls cutting off roads, and flooding waterways in Darwin, as the city experienced its wettest day in 7 years. The deluge made for a slow commute, with traffic brought to a standstill as roads were inundated. The dumping rain is from a strengthening monsoon trough, and there's plenty more where that came from.
