Cyclone Bianca just passed by. She dumped a bit of a rain. Don't worry about the floods in Queensland or Victoria. We've been affected by devasting floods right here in Perth. Where it doesn't rain during summer. Oh the humanity!
Take a boat with you when you cross a flooded street (just in case).
Ok, so the cyclone is still out to sea and likely to cross the coast south of Perth but we have a heavy shower whereby the airport received 20mm of rain in about an hour. Most of it came down in the first 20-30 minutes. Perth itself only received 7.8mm. So we must have gotten somewhere in the vicinity of 15-20mm where we are and just take a look at the devastation. Don't forget us in Perth when it comes to handing out the flood levy money Gillard!
Perth rainfall to 3:34 pm 29.1.2011 - half an hour before the photos were taken.
Flooding in the backyard.
The neighbour's driveway was flooded.
There is a bit of water in front of the council depot.
Quite a bit of water on the streets.
Yeah, hoon on through.
Drain can't handle the water.
Oh, is there some water on the road? I didn't notice.
A 4x4 is the way to handle this flooded street.
Even a learner driver wants to experience driving through a flooded street.
One of the back streets got flooded too.
