BRB, floods

Uh, so this is the creek -lake now, rather - that runs behind our backyard - kind of creeped out now! Dad reckons that the water came right up the hill in the 1974 floods, but it didn't get to the house - fingers crossed that this is the case this time around. It's still got to rise another three or four metres before it comes near us, but damn, what is this bullshit?

Our suburb hasn't been officially warned yet, but the one close to us has been told they're on standby for evacuation, and there's a few nearby on the same - several of my friends have been told to get ready to move, kinda stalking them at the moment to make sure they're okay!

It didn't thankfully, it actually went down fairly quickly after it stopped raining - the river that caused it doesn't seem to be connected to the brisbane river which was doing all the flooding proper :)
