Jdfnq Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 HI all my fellow brothers and sisters in SEQ. Having just seen the carnage that is happening with the weather, I on behalf of my fellow northern brethren wish you all the best and hope that everyone is all ok. We understand the pain. We have cyclones....... Cheers Joe Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/245739-seq/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col-GTSX Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 as someone who drives around all day for work ive had the biggest troubles and traffic jams in the last 4 days its just not funny the amount of rubbish on the roads and water everywhere you look... creeks are over flowing everywhere, the rain was so intence on sunday it filled my empty 10,000 litre water tank in less than 60 minutes (through one down pipe)... we only got power back on monday, wasted so much food etc... i've never seen it this bad and ive lived on the northside my entire life... i went for a ride out to northpine dam this afternoon (5 minutres from home) and the in flows are raging torrents, the dam is starting to fill nicely. They said she is at 43% on the new tonight, and it has not been full since like 2001/2002 so its a long time coming...

babyskyline Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 You guys definitly needed the rain to fill your dams but the way it came down with massive winds was absolutely f**ked and its not over yet if the weather predictions are right.

666DAN Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Calamvale remained unscathed, lots of storm action but no damage here. They must be worried, they're starting to purge Somerset into Wivenhoe, definately more good rain on the horizon Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/245739-seq/#findComment-4274808 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyson 1990 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I live in North Lakes and we actually were barely effected by the storm at all. Yeah we got lots of rain but our house didn't flood or anything. We kept out power too. The front of North Lakes got a decent amount of hail but not the back (which is where i live).

The front of North Lakes got a decent amount of hail but not the back (which is where i live).oh ok, I'm up towards the front and I don't think we got any hail, we must have been lucky then. We were crapping ourselves, we have 3 cars and only a 2-car garage, the third had to be reversed up near the front door. We threw some blankets over the bonnet and used some old tyres to hold them down lol Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/245739-seq/#findComment-4282344 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triptych Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 My skyline only got a little damage but it wasn't from the storms it was from the insane wind we had on Saturday. Lifted my car cover up (metal frame with canvas top) and dumped it half in my yard and half in the neighbours. I got most of the marks off the paint (front quarter, door and rear quarter all on the passengers side) so its time to find a decent detailer who will cut and polish to try and get the rest of the marks out.

sneakey pete Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Micro bursts are dam scary. Didn't get anything near as much rain in the south side., but it was enough to fill a 4000L water tank from 2 downpipes.
