A VERY WET WEEK.

 Over the last two weeks we have had lots and lots of rain. In the last week the rain was non stop, day and night. I couldn't believe the clouds could hold so much water. We had a rain bomb hovering over South East Queensland all week. It caused much flooding in country towns and Brisbane. The road we live on had water across it in places but it never closed. We were safe the whole time but kept inside similar to when we had pandemic lockdowns. 

The rain bomb didn't move for a week then moved slowly south. The black marker is where we live.
 

It rained and rained. Taken from our front door.

Debris washed down the Brisbane River and crashed into ferry terminals and residents' boat pontoons and ripped them from their moorings and then they floated downstream becomining hazards for bridges and more ferry terminals.
We were safe from flooding and the weather is improving slightly as the bomb moves slowly south. Now the Northern NSW people are copping it. More floods and heartache.
