I'm a fair way from the Queensland floods - but it's raining like fury here as well. No floods here atm but we had them before Christmas. My town is flood proofed with huge levee banks following the last floods we had. I feel so sorry for those poor bastards up there. The place is fucked!
And I read just now that because all the coal mines there are flooded, there's likely to be no power generated soon.
This flood thing has come after a year of just about non-stop rain which was preceded bu ten or so years of drought, when it wouldn't rain.
Ahh Australia - beautiful one day, underwater the next!
