FLOOD RISING

I took these snaps at 11am this morning...

Brunswick Street outside Myrther Village (Coles)
Sandbags outside the Waterloo Hotel, Fortitude Valley (Commercial Road)

 
Entrance to the River Walk and my mate's place

 
Looking across to Bulimba park
The River Walk - ruined

 
End of Myrther Road, the crowds begin to gather to watch the swell
Sandbagging furiously to beat the water - Mizu in Teneriffe (my fave Japanese place incidentally)

 
Broken pontoon in front of Teneriffe
Residents in level 1 of my building in Teneriffe (Saratoga South) salvaging personal effects out of the window

Trucks and 4x4s everywhere, loaded with sandbags
Myrther Park near outside Myrther Bowls
The scary thing is, the worst is yet to come. The peak has been revised at reaching 5.2mts in the early hours of tomorrow morning.
