I've been keeping my eyes on the Bureau of Meteorology website www.bom.gov.au/ and the tide charts. The rain is very localized, not up the whole coast. "Lucky Bello" copped it again and it's the highest I've personally seen the flood since 1974. The water was two feet below the floorboards of 2BBB community radio station. More photos.

This morning, the river has receded, but it is still raining and more rain is forecast.

I'm a member of the Rainbow Region flickr group for North-eastern New South Wales.
