Stand up straight from this direction and that direction before I knew it was about a foot outside the door, so we just closed up.

We had to get in the beach, get the sandbags from this from the base and put it up against the doors.

Some residents they began to return home this morning, and here's was very relieved to find the real threat of landslide had spared his house.

Council staff already started clean up, as you can see, across from the bridge over here, the flood debris, lot of soil on the roads and that and a lot of repairs back to where roads have been damaged.

There is still a chance that we could say more flooding here in Mile Craig if we get more heavy rainfall.

But thankfully, it won't be anything like the inundation.
