Man, so the catchments from the local rivers have now overflowed from the rain yesterday afternoon and as I said, it did weaken where I was a little and if it was as bad as what they predicted it would have been a catastrophe. Anyway, this morning as I sit at work typing this, the local suburbs have been quite devastated. Didn't think it would have gotten to this after last night to be honest, crazy stuff.
Some of my workers stranded and high tide is due right now so it could get worse. I have lived in this area since I was 5 and while we have had major floods here, we haven't had the suburbs that are affected today ever affected like this in before. I guess I was wrong about it not being that bad hahaha. Here's some pics;
This train station is 2 minutes away from where I am working right now;
Same place, I work just up from here.
This is a more inland suburb about half an hour away. One worker lives out here and is obviously stuck;
Again, 2 minutes down the road one street away;
