Yeah don't know if I'll hear anything since I haven't yet we'll see though... Hopefully the worst of the weather has past now. Not sure if its meant to rain again or not, think it might. There was sun today though & meant to be tomorrow too. I think Sydney still had rain though. Hopefully it is clearing there too
Yeah it being snow in Texas is why it made the news here. Its not what you associate with Texas normally, not like that anyway. It makes it harder when it hits somewhere where you aren't prepared I think. Snow is pretty, but in smaller doses & not a snow storm. __________________

How big of a flood was it?
Agreed. I mean I'd enjoy it, but not like that. __________________

Pretty big. They're describing it as the most significant flood in 60 years in at least some parts of the state. A lot of people are without homes now, waiting for the waters to clear & hoping that the rain doesn't come back. Its terrible. The area is probably around 900-950km along the coast. Maybe a bit more as I saw something that I think said it was hitting areas south of Sydney & into the next state this morning. I can't find a map showing the area but I did find this which shows rainfall a few days ago. Basically the areas in red are/were flooded. I think its like if in the US the coast from Washington to Tampa, Florida got flooded/heavy rain.
Understandable . I would have no idea what to do if it snowed like that here. I'd happily go back somewhere where it snowed in Winter, but not heavy snows & snowstorms. That looks scary. I don't know how people can live in those sorts of places, but I guess you'd get used to it. __________________

That's a lot. Hope it's all cleared out soon.
Has it rained since? Or it's been better weather? I can't imagine living in snow my whole life either. Like, yeah getting used to it if you live in places like that. But then you gotta take a trip or even move somewhere that has sunshine and pretty weather, like not too hot maybe but also a nice breeze. __________________

Hopefully. The rain system started last Thursday & I think it went off the coast this Wednesday. Here we've had 3 days of sun, but its predicted to rain tonight & most of next week. Only a small amount at least though
Agreed. Sounds like the perfect place to live there I'd like somewhere which didn't get too hot or cold, maybe a light snow fall once a year... I guess you need cold for that though so it can get cold enough to snow lightly __________________

Yeah. Or the town did, it didn't reach here. The town was cut off for a little bit. I'm on the mid north coast now between Taree & Coffs Harbour so in the areas which got hit first. Although not as bad as poor Taree & parts of Sydney

The water, yeah. The clean up will take longer. I was in a neighbouring town yesterday & its so sad seeing the piles of belongings outside of people's homes of things which were lost due to water damage. I hate to think what the worse hit places are like.

Hopefully. Unfortunately most people know if they live in certain areas there is always that risk so in saying that a lot of people just go on with life as they knew the risk was there. Yes its sad, but its better to just move on & do what you need to do instead of dwelling on it . That's the general attitude I see anyway
Happy Easter to those who celebrate __________________
