Flooding (boring to some)


Recommended Posts

Took these pics when i was out on a fire call on Thursday 14th. The weather up here has been the worst weather in terms of rainfall since 1927.

We were out from 4:30am until 6pm dealing with flooded houses and stranded cars due to rapidly increasing water levels.

Thought i share them, i realise it might bore some folk but i thought it was crazy. :)

The 2nd pic is the top half of a house and garage, the ppl that built the house decided to built below ground level, great idea when next to a river.

The 3rd pic is taken from one of the kitchens of one of the houses we had top pump out, the water was right up at his window ledges, usually that great mass of water is a river that flows hundreds of feet away from his house.

The 4th pic is/was his back garden.
