LW McQuade Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Just got off the phone with my cousin who lives just outside of Sydney Australia, who was describing the massive flooding that is happening in New South Wales. She is in a safe area except for the invasion of thousand of spiders looking for dry ground. BBC news So prayers up for all the Australian pards and their families that are being affected by these floods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Crimes Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Thanks, I am on the Hawkesbury River so I am right in the middle of it. My house is OK but I had to drive into the closest suburb I could get to to pick up some Heart Meds and hay for a neighbour who is flooded in. In the last photo the bridge on the right is the same one that's under water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Painted Mohawk SASS 77785 Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Stay safe Major..starting to be a lot of water up here in Queensland, we are ok on high ground but if rain continues will probably be flooded in..oh I should say just me as my wife is up on the Sunshine Coast & it's bucketing down there, can't complain as it's been pretty dry around these parts.

Subdeacon Joe Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Is that the area that had the huge fires about two years ago? Or was it last year? Between your fires and our fires it gets hard to keep track. Stay safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had the fires around here as well (I'm about 5 hours north of the good Major) and now in the middle of one of the points where the main highway along the east coast is cut by floodwaters. So far no deaths but one house floated away and damaged a local bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in Twenty and Seventeen, during the Tubbs Fire here in Sonoma County, California, the Australian crews were some of the first in and last out. Ever thankful for that.
