I now know of at least 3 of my friends that had their house go under in different towns over the last couple days ... Would have been zero if high set , it doesn't fix everything but it could solve a lot .my 2 cents

No not good at all. I have friends up there who have lost a lot.

Maryborough is also a bit of a mess. I was working at the Ford dealer today and there were water marks up to almost 5 feet in the FPV showroom.....
