    yep, my poor VZ was parked 50 meters to the left of that second video while I was at work and unable to do anything. She's in desperate need for a steam clean now because the carpets are damp the whole way through. The 2nd video is literally the next block over from my place. Our roof collapsed a bit and almost took out the new plasma TV. The backyard is still flooded, the pools gone from sparkly clear to overflowing and brown, the roads are covered in tree leaves and branches! Yep, its been fun!

    here in SA, my mates lost the lower level of their shack due to the Murray swelling with the flood waters, lucky my parents are just far enough back from the river not to cop the flood waters.... insane!

    I'm wearing a jumper and trackies in the middle of December in central Victoria. WTF?

    The river has broken its banks also, never seen that happen here EVER. And my grandparents cant remember it being this wet in December either. My Grandfather has lived here for 73years.

    Soop the '93 flood was the last time the Goulburn left the banks (in Mooroopna). The flood a couple of months ago (Sept) it came very close.

    We got a decent storm (decent enough for us to lose power - VERY annoying when you're a computer tech doing an on-site job and you have a list of tasks for the afternoon as long as your arm) here in Longreach this afternoon...been nothing but blue sky all week, so I assumed all the fun and games was over.
