After a wild and frightening night, this is what today (Wednesday, March 30) looks like here in my rain soaked pocket of the Northern Rivers. There are new mass floodings in every town and village between Byron Bay and Ballina to Lismore and beyond. There has been torrential rain, gusting winds, landslides, huge sea swells, evacuations, rescues, roads being swept away, roads closed. Houses, shops, businesses, paddocks and farmlands are all being swallowed indiscriminately again by the rising brown, muddy waters that we've seen far too much of here in the last month. Just about every disaster scenario you can imagine has played out here, in our already devastated region, in the last 24-hours. There is so much to comprehend and process. But for now, all we can do is keep ourselves and each other safe and wait for this latest weather system, and the immediate danger, to pass. With the situation changing by the hour, it's a matter of one moment at a time. Mother Nature sure is showing us who is boss.
