December 29, 201015 yr comment_491364 One of my hobbies is to drive around taking pictures of floodways during the rainy season, just wondering if anyone else on here shares the same hobby as I am looking to setup a website/forum to share your pics and stories so that the media will have access to the pics and so on, just not sure if I should go ahead or not.

December 29, 201015 yr Author comment_491367 Here are a few of the pics from this month: (this is the entrance to the new years camp I was hoping to get, well under water now) (my backyard) (river now level with the roadway but was only just touching the gutter 5 mins before, came up quick, ended up around 1.3m where I was sitting) (normally can't see much water here) (river is actually 1 - 2km away, map added) Location On Map Also a video of the October floods we had, have not uploaded the latest vids as yet. Driving back through flood waters at Walloon, I waited for another car to go through before I did so I could see how deep it was. You will hear a slight miss from the car exiting the water as the dizzy got a little bit wet. Report

December 30, 201015 yr comment_491470 During the storms in Adelaide I was coming home from work and was about to cross the creek just down the road from my house and came across this. The water level was actually up to the roof before I got there. As I was walking by I heard the driver of the car (obviously a woman) say "when I entered the stream it didn't look that deap" lol......... This is the highest water level I have ever seen here in 9 years. The force of the water even bent the railings. But the most horrific thing to greet me as I got home was this. She is one of those "energetic" greeters Report
December 30, 201015 yr comment_491479 Josephville rd on the other side of Beaudesert floods, Goes about 5 - 6 meters under water and the road usually floats away. The road that goes behind bunnings at oxley goes under water pretty easy, Which means no access to maccas, super cheap or harvey norman. Report
