Brisbane Floods - Jan 2011

Journal Entry: Fri Jan 14, 2011, 5:07 AM








Well,  It has been just on a year since my last journal.  The new year has started and it seems that 2011 is the year sent to test Queenslanders and Australians as a whole.

After a thoroughly wet XMAS, the new year started with flooding in Rockhampton and areas of Central QLD.  What was already pretty bad flooding has been extended across 2/3 of this huge state.

Toowoomba and the small town of Grantham in the Lockyer Valley have been particularly hard hit.  A dozen or more people have lost their lives in flash flooding with many still unaccounted for.  The scenes of destruction are truly distressing.

The last few days it has been Brisbane's turn.  Widespread flooding in areas of Brisbane including the Central Business District being inundated with a couple of meters of water.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by stupidity.
