Lives lost as deluge hits Toowoomba and the Lockyer Valley | Latest Breaking Local News | News.com.au

This time last year they were nearly running out of water and five years ago the local dam had less then 30% full. It's staggering to think that as I said in an earlier post, that the area hit is bigger then France and Germany

BTW, I'm a good 200km away from all of this.

Nah, we're perfectly fine. That and I don't have too much family in Australia.

Those photos on Facebook seem to capture something of the force of the water.

The impression I get is that people in Toowoomba weren't expecting it. Could that be right?

 

[craig1985]

The crazy thing about Toowoomba is that if you drive out from Brisbane, you have to go over a massive mountain (called The Great Dividing Range) to get to Toowoomba and the CBD sits in between two valleys. So far 8 people dead and 72 people missing.

Put it this way, if a bike race where to finish onto of the mountain pass you drive up when going to Toowoomba, everybody in PRC would be frothing at the mouth at such a prospect, because not only is it a long climb, but very steep as well.

I work in the Brisbane CBD which was evacuated today. I rode my bike out of the carpark just as the flood waters were entering the carpark.

[marinoni]

It's raining. Tomorrow, it's supposed to rain. Tuesday, they're calling for showers with some rain added. Wed, sunny from 6:01 to 6:03, then rain. Thursday, heavy showers mixed with downpours. Friday, try to remember what the sun looked like. Go kill my brother for encouraging me to move here. Then walk home. In the rain.
