Remember my photo of a church in Lismore?
This is what it looked like last week after floodwaters inundated the town.

Wow, such a graphic illustration of the scale of the flooding. That first photo shows the church is on a rise and the second shows it doesn’t matter. I hope things dry out soon over there.

Not sure about the inside as a lot of that is wood but there won’t be structural damage I think

There is thousands homeless and hundreds of houses that will be condemned. The streets are stilled filled with the contents of houses and shops. It is such a disaster

When I’ve seen homes here devastated and damaged by floods it makes me so sad. One can only hope those affected in your floods were well insured.

OH not many could afford the insurance. The building where K’s daughter had her studio cost $26,000 a year to insure and most basic houses the cost was upwards of $10,000 a year.

Crikey, that sounds like a lot of money! Those poor people, it must be so awful to lose their homes and possessions.
A problem here is that some homes in flood areas can no longer get insurance thanks to global warming and the reoccurrence of flooding.
