Re: flooding in Australia
Fiatfactory is in Western Australia, they've been having a few dramas with Bushfires! A couple of Fiat owners in Brisbane have moved project cars etc. to higher ground.

Re: flooding in Australia
Whew, good news... sort of. The news clips here show it is one e'll of a mess. Saw a clip of people lining up at a bus stop with mops,and buckets for an hour or more to help those in need. Big area to get sorted.

Re: flooding in Australia
People that weren't affected are registering at volunteer sites to help out those that were affected, people are even coming in from interstate to help out. Parts of QLD, NSW and Victoria are still flooding and we've had record rain, river levels and flooding in Tasmania.

Re: flooding in Australia
Bushfires around Perth, and two consecutive floods further north in Western Australia around the Carnarvon region. The fruit bowls of Australia (east and west sides) have taken a hammering.
