It is scary. Fortunately my house is safe although I have come home early from work both today and yesterday due to fears of not being able to get through with roads being closed. The rain has stopped now though which has helped but the river is still going to peak tomorrow with the high tides so more homes will go under. Brisbane has been luckier though than Toowoomba as we have had days of warning - Toowoomba's flood was totally unexpected. I think the death toll is at 12 now with 60-something still unaccounted for. One of the most upsetting deaths was a 4 year old boy who fell off a rescue boat this morning.
