A girl is seen jumping from rocks at Brewarrina Weir on February 16, 2020 in Brewarrina, Australia. The Brewarrina Weir in Northern New South Wales overflowed on the weekend for the first time in years, as rain water from upstream flowed into the once dry river beds. The influx of water at the weir has also brought back to life the heritage listed Aboriginal fish traps, also known as Baiame's Ngunnhu. Recent rains and thunderstorms across Eastern Australia have seen a number of rivers feeding the Murray-Darling basin begin to flow. Pumping embargoes for the Barwon-Darling river system which prevent irrigators from extracting water from the river are currently in place, however there are fears that recent rainfalls may cause the NSW Government to lift the ban.
