It's wet wet wet

I mentioned yesterday and today that we have had a bit of rain, the estimates are between 300 and 400 mm in the past 24 hours (11.8 to 15.7 inches).  So I thought I'd post some pics of the flooding we have today.  The flooding is on roads mostly where low bridges cross rivers and streams, so houses aren't affected.  We also have some reports of landslides on the mountain ranges.  Several roads in the area are closed due to the flooding or debris left behind after the floods have gone down a bit.

 

The photos are of the road where our local Curtain Fig tree is located;   The road crossing the bridge over Malanda Falls;  The road over the little stream that I used to cross when going to and from my old house;  Barron Falls - the big waterfall between where I live and the coast.  The headwaters of Barron Falls are near where I live.

Wow. Stay safe! I look up what a curtain fig is and it is amazing.

Did you contact Noah and ask for help?

[Nan]

Not yet Smiley but I'm thinking about it, and put his number on my speed dial.

 

TV, Dodge is a long way south of here and not sure there is any rain down his way

We had reports of the first landslide on one of the range roads

And this one of the shelter beside the waterfalls where they have tables and seats and bbq's for people to use

None of that looks good, there'll be a lot of clean up afterwards, even if no houses are affected and from the looks of it and with more rain coming, I'd not count the houses out quite yet.

Those pictures are incredible. I hope you aren't about to wash away
