Rain, rain, go away....

This picture (above) taken today in the Central Highlands of NSW.
Over 5" of rain (154mm) fell on Sunday night and early Monday leaving floods across Brisbane. The pictures above and below are of a road I use to go to work. There was gridlock everywhere on the Northside of Brisbane with significant roads cut. I spent 35 minutes going just one block from my house before I turned around and drove back home. The rains have returned, but not as heavy, and the winds have picked up and the temperatures have gone a bit chilly (Queensland chilly, not Europe chilly). Similar rain at Uluru this week has seen the Rock smothered in white rushing waterfalls. Oh, it also snowed today in parts of NSW and Victoria. Mid October? Crazy!
