Both equal destruction and loss of life. I can't comprehend either of the two.

I work in south Brisbane and it looks like we may get sent home soon... don't think i'll get any where near us. I'm on Fleet Lane/Hope Street. West end is starting to flood now with Riverside Drive closed due to the river braking it's banks

Edit: added photo of Riverside Drive

Just packing up all the valuables now. We are on Moggill Ck which is on the flood map just released this morning. Coming down in buckets atm. Moggill Ck is just below the top of the banks and we haven't even received the flood waters from the north west yet . We are lucky that we have a second storey to move everything to, but our neighbours have no such luxury.

Just hope my brand new bar and kegging system, along with three fridges survives all this

Cheers - Snow

Good luck Snow, my thoughts are with you mate.

cheers

What in gods name could you be carrying upstairs that's more important than the brew gear,
good luck & keep safe, it does seem a bit biblical, locusts, fires, floods.

Bribie Island now cut off with the 3 possible roads to Caboolture all submerged.

We're looking okay here. Just dealing with 2 kids that have been cooped up inside for the last 3 weeks... getting cabin fever.

 

[browndog]

It has been bucketing down here for the last few hrs and wivenhoe is copping it worse.

Looks like the airport is gunna cop it too, hmm.

Buddy from Caboolture just rang, Caboolture and Morayfield are being evacuated (cf Werribee / Hoppers, Campbelltown /Narellan)

edit: popping off to ALDI for longlife milk, canned food and batteries if there are any left as supplies will run out in a couple of days and no trucks in or out of the Island. Lucky I've got a gas barbie. Cheers.

i read at current flow rates in to the dam it had 1.5 days till capacity. that was this morning though, from all reports that area is getting a good downfall, so expect less
