My sister who is OS atm will probably have the bottom floor of her unit flooded though. They're saying worse than '74 but who knows with the media hyperbole...

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!

Thanks to you and the others for the updates. :thumbsup

Australian City a Stinking Mess
http://www.winnipegsun.com/news/worl.../16868541.html

"The Queensland floods, which started in December, have killed 20 people, left 53 missing and affected an area the size of South Africa. A total of 86 towns have been impacted."

"The massive flood which hit Brisbane was contaminated with sewage which spilled from damaged treatment plants upstream on the Brisbane River."



Yup, next comes the pestilence.


That's some serious situation down there.

Not entirely true. I can't speak for anyone else but I didn't post about it here because I simply don't know any webmasters from there. I know of several dozen Aussies though.

But I'm sure at least part of last year's donations to the Red Cross went to aid Pakistan. I know I always check the "International Aid" box whenever I make one.

Bad weather has moved to the southern states of Australia; some areas have experienced a 1-in-100 year flood over the past few days. Nowhere near as bad as those in Queensland of course, but it's still breaking records.
