Floods in Australia

I live in Rockhampton. I was on a road trip from here to Geelong ( about 2,000km south of here ), and was on my way back towing a project car ( 62 Valiant ), and got as far as Brisbane, had to leave my cars at brother inlaws place and fly back to Rocky before the airport closed.
My new house that was getting built off-site, was about 3' under water, so now the floor is stuffed.
The river got to 9.2m.....normal high tide height is 4m.
