For those that don't know, I live in Brisbane, Australia.
Australia's third largest city.
The capital city of Queensland.
We are currently about to experience the largest flood in over 100 years.
75% of the state ([url]https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Queensland[/url]) has been declared a disaster zone. That's about 1,297,986 square kilometers - or double the size of Texas or three times the size or Germany. Under water or badly affected.
The authorities are shutting down power to the CBD today in preparation for tomorrow.
Obviously I'm not going to work for the rest of the week (at least).
Fortunately, my house and family are perfectly safe.
You never know, I might get some coding done !!!
