I've had a look at the site you've given, which also gives useful advice on Preparing for Floods: http://www.emergency.qld.gov.au/emq/css/flood.asp The BBC site has a page on: Australia floods: Brisbane begins massive clean-up http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-12188293 I hope our other Queensland list members are safe, too.
