In 1974 Lake Eyre was 6 m (20 ft) deep. Local rain filled Lake Eyre to 3.5 m (11 ft) in 1984 and 1989. Very heavy rain in January 2007 took about six weeks to reach the lake but put only a small amount of water into it.
The lake covers 32,900 km 2 (12,700 sq mi), with a shoreline of 1,828 km (1,136 mi), a mean depth of 570 m (1,870 ft) and a maximum depth of 1,470 m (4,820 ft) (in the northern basin). It holds an estimated 18,900 cubic kilometres (4,500 cu mi).
