Early morning deluge, usually pathetic trickles of Sullivan's Creek running through our suburb become raging brown torrents in minutes. Fields flood. Roads cut. Path and cycleway swirl with water. At least one rescue. Police out in force sorting the gawkers in cars and patrol with a stack of rubber dinghies. Several unit basements flooded. Our basement is too but car moved to safe spot. Sorry mess in some storage cages. Great for garden though.
