First of all, I hope everybody in Towoomba is safe and hasn't lost any loved ones in the flash flooding.

Anyone else in Queensland feeling the major flooding going on? I live in Gympie QLD and if any of you know where that is you'll know we're having lots of fun ^_^ The Mary river Hit 19 meters and is only just starting to fall... with some more heavy rain forecast...

Thanks to Gympie the supply line to pretty much all of northen QLD is cut off.

Post some flood pics here.

I'm down on the Gold Coast, but I was up on the Sunshine Coast a few days ago, and we almost got stuck. It sure has been raining a lot. Hope you stay safe and dry mate, and all those in Qld.

Hey those pics are crazy.

I live on a hill between brissy and the sunshine coast (suburb called Petrie). So atm i should be alright. (but there is a lake a few ks down the road)
My brother lives in Strathpine (2suburbs away) where there evacuating the low levels of the area and my sister is babysitting in caboolture which apparently had 150mm of rain droppped this morning and is on a high evacuation.

The thing that gets me is these areas that are been evacuated where the hell do u go i mean the water is just everywhere.

Just gonna be trapped inside for a while till the water clears up

It's been raining constantly for the past few days, it's been heavy for most of that time. We haven't flooded yet. Fingers crossed we don't!
