We have just experienced a couple of severe storms and flooding.

It started on Wednesday and is slowly trying to clear up now.

My little house has received a fair amount of water damage as my lounge started to flood yesterday. I am luckier than most that had to be evacuated and their homes destroyed. So I am truly grateful for that.

We have spent the better part of 2 days and nights without power, but fortunately, this was recently restored.

Tragically, a few lives have been lost and many injured.

This kind of weather is completely uncharacteristic for where I live so it has shocked us all.

Anyway, I am safe and well. This rain is still pouring down intermittently but hopefully the worst of the flooding is over.
