The power of nature, you have built on a flood plain

Ahh yes! The QLD floods . Lived through many of these in Cairns between 1983-92. Hope the folks inland along the Barron River are ok. 🙏 Stay safe Aussies. Don’t by property that’s under 30ms above regular water levels. 🫣😏

With climate change, no geography will be safe from natural disasters. Flash floods in regions where floods weren't so common can sweep houses from the hills even. Hold your hats, folks.

Wow. Aussies seem to be dealing with it well. I hope there are no loss of lives. Best wishes to all Aussies affected and I hope your Christmases aren't ruined.

@guardiannews You showed us the WORST flood in decades, but we want to see the BEST flood in decades. Please do better!

What a mess. Stay safe out there people.

@@carrot595 according to the North Queensland governments own website there have been significant floods recorded since 1860. Obviously there was flooding before that too, just not recorded.

Pretty normal for this region. Shouldnt allow people to build in flood zones

Oh dear record breaking extreme weather That’s quite normal that is……. Derrrrr

Beware of crocs

nothing to do with cloud seeding or weather modifications.

I think Australia needs to mine more coal, it still has more deserts to flood.

They drive on the wrong side of the road....

Warning: Watch dec 2023 the Murray river is full now & will flood again down to SA be ready uno how it goes .

At least the land will be much more greener than before and the wildlife will recover from droughts.

No drought up here, we have had rain off and on right through dry season. South West has drought

Ohhh it must be global warming, climate change. Mmmm! Maybe not! In some parts of inland Queensland, riverine flooding can spread thousands of square kilometres for weeks or even months at a time. Related weather events include tropical cyclones, lows, monsoon troughs. Flash flooding happens where there is a lot of rain in a short period of time. Its just natural Mr and Mrs Guardian!

No! No! No! Haven't you got the message? If there is a flood it is caused by man made global warming! More rain? Definitely man made global warming!

If only there was a way to drain all this floodwater into the desert. Maybe in huge floodgates and underground pipes. Sure, it would cost a lot, but these floods are just going to increase in number and size in the future, so capturing it before it does damage and, via the appropriate filters, sending it to the drought-stricken farms could well pay for itself before long. In the meantime, I'm really sorry for all those affected by this disaster.😢

@@tentringer4065 Yeah - I used to believe that, too, until I looked a little further and deeper into the people and institutions that have been pushing the idea for the last 30 years. The COP28 was the latest example - all these elitists flying in private jets halfway across the world enjoying banquets while they tell us we are eating up all the world's resources and blighting the planet. i have ONE rule that has never let me down. I only take people who practice what they preach seriously, I only follow people who lead by example - and I look into the background of anyone who tells me I need to sacrifice on their behalf.
