Flooded In!

We'll be staying at home for a little bit.

This is the road to the west of us to the town where I work. Over 1.5m deep (5 foot).


Here is the road to our east. We travel this way to our main shopping centre for groceries, business etc. The level indicator is well in there somewhere. Luckily we managed to buy groceries the day before this went over.


So for the time being, we'll be staying put. Thankfully we're high and dry and I have plenty of UFO's to keep me busy.

Looks absolutely dreadful on the news. Glad you are safe even though stranded... hope it stays that way! (Safe - not stranded). We'd be happy to have some of that rain over here in the very dry (no rain in more than 100 days) West.

How convenient!lol
At least you are making the most of the weather.
Glad you are high and dry.
We wish some of that water would come down to Victoria. We have had our share today with super storms but nowhere near as much as you guys.
take care...
