Water water everywhere!!
 

OMG i have never seen so much water *L* While we are safe from flooding unfortunately for some this is not the case. A warning has come out to not do any uneccessary travelling as many roads are dangerous with water or completely impassable

QLD is in for a VERY wet time.

We have a small river flowing down one side of the house (just runoff not an actual river) and we had to dig a channel through our carport to release more water from the backyard. The water just cannot run away quick enough. Our rainwater tank is majorily overflowing for the 1st time since we moved here. The water is that deep in the yard it is mucking with our waterpipes, causing backflows of air to burst through the inside sinks.

We have an open water drain running past our front fence and it is full to the point it is covering nearly half the road as well. It is bin day, so we put the bin out for collection and the force of the water was moving it down the street *L* (240litre bin, chockers and heavy as) AND the rain is getting heavier!

Once i've got some batteries, i hope to get some pics, it is unreal!

Wow. I understand that kind of water. It can be like that in Florida too. Stay safe. Don't travel more than is necessary and take care of each other ((hugs)))

Stay safe.................build an Ark maybe?!?!?!?!

Some piccies :)

Out my back door and what poor Nika is sloshing through


Little river and flooded front yard, water making its way to the main channel


Water heading down one side of our driveway into the main water channel


The channel above heads into here (this is normally dry, i walk Nika through here *L*)

We headed into Toowoomba, had to get new batteries *L* so took a few pics on the way home

Bet this home is happy to be on the hill


Water filled creeks course




Water heading for Cambooya

We get part way home and come across a road block with Road Closed signs...eeek. Turns out we could get through, but people needing to go to the next small town or further were stuck (see water running down the side road onto the highway)


Flooded crops



Road part underwater

Heading for a bridge on the highway




Over the bridge (normally this is quite a drop to a dry bed *L*)


Following fire truck into Cambooya

We headed to the other road out of Cambooya, nope defiantely aint getting out that way




Stuck on other side


Closer look

Water Force, i definately would NOT want to be in this!~

That is some serious rain!

Wow! Great pictures of a tragic event. Just stay safe and we'll keep prayin' for ya'.

I bet even your fish are glad they're not out in that! :yikes:

floods are no fun at all,a couple of years ago I had 2ft of water inside my shop,nope not fun !By the way I have this boat with some animal stalls just pay shipping

Hopefully it won't be like Nashville and have houses literally floating away.

Houseboats were popular once!!

True, but I don't think they were made out of a two story executive three bedroom house.
