Cyclone Yasi's tail

Last night, it was Melbourne's turn to face flash flooding.

The tail end of Cyclone Yasi lashed us with high winds and torrential rain.

We had a nervous wait with our pool 1mm away from overflowing and flooding.

Now I've woken to our street looking like this about 4 houses away. (this isn't our street but in Camberwell, a busy shopping district.) Full story here.

It's lovely living near waterways...until stuff like this happens!

Stay safe Melburnians!
