Here are some pics I took mostly on the morning before we self-evacuated, so that would be Wed morning/afternoon. Keeping in mind that these shots were taken almost a day before the actually peak of the flood waters was expected and it shows just how bad it really was...


Same footpath as in my other shot earlier, but the next morning.


Same shelter on the bike path as before, but the next morning.


Same shelter a few hours later


Coronation drive (busy busy road linking suburbs to city centre) flooded and blocked off


Coronation drive completely empty of cars due to road blocks


Some dude's boat floating away on a personal dock (I think)


Same footpath but the sign has been moved higher as the lower steps are completely flooded (few hours later)


Restaurant on the river that is completely flooded (heard it's super expensive to eat there)


Some lower-laying side street flooded (all the garbage and mud is making cleanup a mess)


My area was basically a ghost town cause of blockages and people evacuating


When people are canoeing on streets, it's a bad sign


Major interchange/intersection point completely flooded


Same location, different angle

Edit: Ugh, looks like I used the wrong tags... I'm too tired now but I might change them in the morning. Either way, I hope this sort of gives people an insight into the situation here. I might have some pics of the aftermath later, but not at this moment.
