Aussies will get off their collective arses and help.. it is what we do.. in my lifetime I have seen numerous instances.. from 1974 Brisbane, Cyclone Tracy 1974 and onwards time and again..

You're right, Australians are marvellous when it comes to emergencies like this. Plenty of help on the way, no worries there.
Thank you to everyone from QLD/NSW who is affected who let us know you are okay. I'm saying prayers that of you and yours stay safe and well.
Please keep us posted if you can, especially as we get closer to Thursday.

I am watching what happens in Brisbane in the next couple of days and praying it slows down before it gets or if it gets to the Gold Coast. 
Couldn't get those images of Toowoomba out of my head last night, listened to the rain, off to get some much needed zzzzzzzzz's see what tomorrow brings.

The poor thing, let her know thoughts are with her C 
Had a chat to Red this morning, her place is about 1/2 under, with the river still rising 
she was able to get a lot of stuff out and her and the kids are safe with family.
Told her that everyone was worried about her, and that I'd leave an update here.
We have sunshine today
so thats great for me and Im heading home.

I heard from Red just now .. she heard her house is under up to the roof now but she did get all her stuff out and her and the kids are still safe and sound
I feel so sorry for her brother tho.. he owns the house and couldn't get flood insurance - probably because the same house went under in the 74 floods)
hotspurs: Hi
The water is rising in Ipswich, but i am ok, not sure if going to work in Brisbane in the morning

hope everything is ok for you hotspur.. just been watching footage of ipswich floods .. so much water.. its just awful
Im glad reds ok still its going to be so traumatic for her and her family please pass on my best wishes and if there is anything us southerners can do sing out 
many of you may have already seen these but here are some photos of the devastation caused by the floods
I hope kezza is ok... she hasn't responded to my text yet
Water rising again in Maryborough, but this was expected, due to water from further up the river, tide today is lower than the other day so we should be fine, in any case I will not be in trouble unless the whole town has gone. Dont worry about me, save that for those further south.
I was watching the weather and it looks like there is more rain in northern territory thru the centre western qld again such as there was preceeding this catastrophic event , I hate to be the bearer of even worse news but correct me if im wrong , wont this weather pattern result in the same result in a few weeks?There is also a cyclone brewing in the coral sea and we all know what that means .I feel we may have only just seen the tip of the iceburg with this insane weather , victoria is also experianceing some flooding and a servere weather warning heavy rains predicted for SA
Anoother question I have for those more educated in the geographical workings of our continent is this , will all this water head south? towards the southern states , we too have had heaps of rain in the last 4 months so our grounds here are soggy...
The ramifications of this event are many and far reaching I feel the true effects will resound for months if not years ,What of the mossie plauges ,Disease, depresssion, the sewage spills the power outages , the oil and petrol in the ocean the enviromental impact for the farming and agricultural communities I mean all the topsoil will have washed away, the price of food will soar What else can we expect ???
