Brisbane Floods MAN MADE.

[instantleads]

I live in the outer suburbs of Brisbane and have watched the reports both locally and worldwide. I am gathering news stories and other evidence to show that specifically the South East Queensland floods happening today are overall natural but in the next 48 hours the Australian Government for some reason (as a test maybe?) is about to deliberately and UNNESSISARILY flood the Brisbane Area.

New Scientist calls the phenomenon occurring in Northern Australia an “inland tsunami.” Workers
 evacuated en masse after the Brisbane River burst its banks... and the downtown  area would
 be hit in Australia’s third largest city, which was facing its biggest floods since 1893.

“This water is on its way,” said Brisbane Lord Mayor Campbell Newman.
“Today is very significant, tomorrow is bad, and Thursday is going to be devastating for the residents and businesses concerned,” he said.

Earlier today (in a video statement) he ignored any question sconcerning the dams and the soon to be controllled flooding of the brisbane city.

This is the month that our city always gets massive rains and flooding yet they kept stockpiling the water in out dams, even in recent droughts incrases in dam levels this time of year are woell above the level hey allowed for, as a matter of fact even a light rain over the catchment areas for a week or two more would do this.


MORE TO COME, Will update in 2ND hour of today's show, this post I mean, not as a guest

BBC reported that the majority of flooding that is going on in Brisbane was because of controlled releases form dams that were over full.

if I can find the link I will post it.

Evacuation centre activated

11/1/2011       

Brisbane City Council advises an evacuation centre has been set up at the RNA Showgrounds at Bowen Hills for residents affected by floods.

The evacuation centre has been established for those who wish to evacuate of their own accord and cannot be accommodated with family or friends. Please note, there have been no forced evacuations.

Residents are advised to bring the following with them if they choose to stay at the evacuation centre: Pillows and sheets, any medication, important documents such as insurance papers and spare clothing.

At this stage no pets are able to be accommodated at the evacuation centre so residents should make alternative arrangements to house their pets prior to moving to the evacuation centre.

Thousands of people have been urged to leave parts of Australia's third largest city, Brisbane, which is facing its worst flooding in decades.

Officials say between 6,500 and 9,000 homes and businesses are set to flood in Queensland's state capital.

Streets are largely empty and families have moved to refuge centres in some areas, with the peak of the flooding expected on Wednesday and Thursday.

Flash floods across Queensland have left 10 dead and more than 70 missing.

Some 200,000 people have been affected.

The flooding has caused billions of dollars worth of damage.

Brisbane is facing a combined surge of water from the flooded Lockyer Valley and the Wivenhoe Dam, which is so full it has been forced into controlled releases.

Authorities fear the Brisbane River will go beyond the 5.45m (17.9ft) peak that was reached during the devastating floods of 1974.

The river snakes its way through the centre of the city and in places it has burst its banks already, says BBC Australia correspondent Nick Bryant, in Brisbane.

Cars have been streaming out of the city and office workers have been fleeing the main business district, while lower lying suburbs have already been inundated.

I dont know about Oz, but the floods in England are mostly down to people messing with the rivers. They build things that are claimed to be "flood protection", but they just funnel more water downstream to guarantee flooding the next town downstream.

In Brisbane, floods are expected to surge through 6500 homes and businesses at a level beyond the catastrophic 1974 floods.

Three-quarters of the state of Queensland has now been declared a disaster zone. Ms Bligh said the new declarations were made in response to the inundation of Toowoomba and its
surrounds, as well as renewed flood peaks that are expected during the week. Disaster declarations give police and emergency workers the authority to force
evacuations.  They have now been made for the Brisbane, Bundaberg, Dalby, Gladstone, Gold Coast, Gympie, Ipswich, Logan, Maryborough, Rockhampton, Roma,
Sunshine Coast, Toowoomba, Warwick and Redcliffe districts. "This is an extreme event," Ms Bligh said.

"(We) hope never to have to put these plans into place, but they are ready. "I am determined to ensure these personnel have every power they need to minimise
 the loss of life and property." She urged residents to listen and obey the directions from emergency workers. Ms Bligh said a "frightening" situation was developing
in Ipswich and Brisbane.

..." We will only pass this test if we are calm, if we are patient with each other ... and if we listen carefully to the instructions we are being given. Now is not a time for panic"

(BOLD AND RED FONT ADDED)

Forced Evacuations are occuring in suburbs with only minor or possible/antisipated flooding. If we still had guns here in Australia they would be taking
them then coming back for us. Sigh.  Oh and when coming to "Evacuate Us" they insist on searching non flooded properties for "anything" of concern. When we
are on our varandah telling them there is no-one left inside why should this forced evacuation also include a non lawful and warrantless forced search
 of my home.

Is city council lying about the evacuations?

"Please note, there have been no forced evacuations."

What's the local media calling them?

[Freeski]

Evacuations are intensifying. About 9,000 properties will be inundated, Bligh said. “We do need to brace ourselves for a significant death toll,” Bligh said.

”If you’re asked to leave your property, don’t make the job harder.”

I love the

"Now is not a time for panic."

As stated by our States premier when in the same statement warning us that significant deaths are certain.

I await instructions to panic.

Jullia Gillard also confirmed offers of help had been received from other countries, with New Zealand's offer of military support the first to be accepted.
Defence Minister Stephen Smith said the ADF would deploy additional helicopters. Three army Black Hawk helicopters, two Navy Sea King helicopters,
an Army CH47 Chinook helicopter, two RAAF B350 King Air planes and an RAAF C-130 Hercules are already involved. The Black Hawks were used in
the evacuation of the entire town of Forest Hill, 80km west of Brisbane, which is floodbound.
