well I got home last night expecting... well a bit of wetness. all the creeks were overflowing, apparently our road was covered with 1/2 a foot of water, the council was out for ages scraping mud and debris off all the roads, our pool has overflown again!, cheryls bonsai collection needs repotting cause all teh soil was washed out of them, our local shops are closed (probably flooded out), the pavers in the backyard have been undermined and need to be reset as the now wobble everywhere, apparently the backyard flooded so bad that 2 more cm and we'd have had water pouring into the kitchen, etc.... i am sure you got the idea. one person 2 suburbs away got struck buy lightning, and finally 3 kids have been washed down drains
all from about 2 hrs of rain.
