Flood Photo's

As you may be aware the last few days have seen South East Queensland and Northern NSW deluged with flood water as storms move through the regions. Here are a few photo's of the flooding in our area.

Michael has been off work since mid morning Thursday and the above photo shows why the school is still closed today (Monday). This photo was taken from a service station across from the school and shows just how much water is covering the road into the school.

Another view from the service station near school.

This photo was taken from behind the presbytery Fr always has a wonderful view of the river but this is probably a little close for comfort.

These steps usually lead down to a grassed area beside the river.

This is taken from behind the Catholic church

So you can get an idea just how high the water came up here is a photo taken on Good Friday this year of the area behind the church. To take this this photo yesterday you would be standing in water.

If this photo had been taken Good Friday you would be able to the see the grass cross on the river flat that is now covered in flood water.

The local sporting fields resemble a lake.
