So devastating to watch

I live on the Gold Coast - its normally sunny and warm and we would be at the beach.  Instead we are  glued to the Television and facebook watching the  flood  tragedy that is occurring across Queensland.    People are missing,  some have died and many  will lose  all of their  valuables and possessions.  Its  devastating and amazing to watch - the sheer volume of water is  extreme and it isnt even over yet.
My heart goes out to all of you who are immediatley  affected  by this awful flooding.  I cant imagine where you begin the cleanup?  and where does all that debris and rubbish  and destroyed  belongings go?

For those of you who havent seen it - here is a small  section of the  water!!!
