Title: Newcastle (Australia) Floods
Post by: rJCaiG on June 11, 2007, 09:12:25 am: In Australia, on Friday the 8th of June, 2007, NSW (New South Wales) had a massive huge really big storm. It rained down hard for 6-7 hours. The result of this, I will show below. There is huge flooding in some of the towns along the Hunter River. I live in one of them, but far away from the river. I visited it today.

A Picnic Park:

You can see the river behind it, but this is the picnic area too:

Post by: PMP on June 13, 2007, 05:50:50 pm: My hood is soooooooooo.... boriiiiiiiiing :( there are no natural calamities here.
But in the rest of portugal there's floods and forest fires.

But thats it, no tornados or heavy snow, nor terrorism nor other stuff like that.
BOOOORIIIIIING......unless when there's gang fights and GOE(Swat) interventions.
