A 2022 flash flood in Eugowra killed two people; families testified about trauma and warning failures, with findings expected in 2026.
A coronial inquest in Orange heard emotional testimony from families of Diane Smith, 60, and Ljubisa "Les" Vugec, 85, who died in the record-breaking November 14, 2022, flash flood in Eugowra, where Mandagery Creek rose to 11.02 meters.
Smith was last seen clinging to a tree during a phone call with her son before being swept away; Vugec was seen trying to protect his dog before the floodwaters surged.
Both families described lasting trauma and criticized emergency warning failures, including untransmitted data from upstream gauges.
Deputy State Coroner David O’Neil acknowledged the unprecedented scale of the disaster, cited shifting weather patterns, and urged public attention to expert warnings, with final findings expected in early 2026.
