New Farm Floods - Day 2


Today we have seen the waters slide back into the storm water drains, leaving behind a thick, sticky mud - but so far no smell! The River will peak again in an hour and all reports are that it will be at the same level as this morning or lower.


The sky is a flicker of silver, white and grey and the water up there is still holding (no rain).


There is some talk of a thunder storm, which could change things, but people are optimisic that the worst is over.


We are still without power at home and a number of lower lying areas are without alot more.


The worst areas are between the Milton reach of the river all the way up the River toward and past Ipswich.
