surviving the TC Jasper Flood while everything owned is destroyed..
A Neighbour had sought refuge at occupant's house, and they bedded down around 9pm. Then heard things bumping under floorboards. got out of bed with phone torch, went onto the verandah and saw muddy debris laden water swirling rapidly under the house. occupants evacuated immediately in occupant's car to higher ground. As the floodwater approached the car, occupants fled into the bush to even higher ground where they stayed through thunder and lightning and torrential rain all night. On daylight they ventured back to the road as there was no access to the house. Occupants spent quite some time isolated in the bush waiting for help from neighbours with earthmoving machinery to clear access for their escape. Later that day the homeowner cut a track through to the house and discovered the devastation and everything lost.
