Queensland.



Feral's State.

I looked it up, in the far North of the state..



It has a tropical climate.

That's why it's in flood. Massive rainfall...over a thousand mm in a few days.



That's more than Adelaide gets in a year.

Oh my goodness..



We had to evacuate our house in Calgary briefly during the 2013 Southern Alberta floods..



I empathize with the people of Townsville.

It's catastrophic...and not for the first time.



There's little they can do. Flood barriers wouldn't work because the deluge is too intense.

Have they evacuated anyone yet?

Yes, around 1000 are in shelters, and that will climb.

By the way, the crocs are freshies...not aggressive or dangerous unless threatened and not really capable of killing adults.
