Brisbane Floods

Floods Floods Floods!

Well we awoke this morning to find that Toowoomba hade been flooded, but not just by a bit of water but by a Tsunami of water flowing down the street! Some people have been killed and still people are missing... this is such a tragic day :(. People are getting together tho and helping out those in need, which is great!

The flood is heading down towards Brisbane City and lots of people have been exacuated. Sy works in the City center and I work in Fortitude Valley and both places are expected to flood in the next couple of days!

Sy's work told people to go home so they could be safe and attend to people in need (also if they or their families could not go home to get on a plane or stay in a hotel at the work expense). What a nice thing to do! However my work said to stay untill 5pm if we can but be careful..... and then went ahead to remind us that if we did go home we had to take either as Holiday or as sick leave...... nice hey......

This flood s to be as bad as the 1974 floods! which is not good at all...... google it!
