Queensland floods: One dead and major bridge collapses after Australia’s flood worsens

For years there has been talk of water shortages, yet every continent seems to be experiencing unprecedented flooding. (Including the UK).

One person died, thousands were evacuated and a major bridge collapsed as torrential rains inundated large parts of Queensland in what is feared to be one of Australia’s worst flooding in more than 60 years.

Part of the Bruce Highway – Queensland’s main transport artery stretching over 1,600km – has been washed away after days of relentless rain, severing critical supply routes and adding hundreds of kilometres to emergency detours.

The collapse of the Ollera Creek Bridge has left communities stranded and complicated rescue efforts in a region already overwhelmed by floodwaters

Huh?  Five flooding events 2021-22, Lawnton 24, and now this.

This is just from Qld Community Recovery.

From the perspective of Queensland the talk over the last few years has been about La Nina.
