The current floods in Brisbane (May 2009) have been the worst since the floods in 1974. By the time the 1974 floods abated, four days after they set in, 16 people had died, 300 had been injured, and 9,000 people left homeless. Total cost of the damage, in 1974 values, was $200 million. Since the above was written, there have been more, major floods. Commencing in central Queensland around 10 December 2010, massive floods have moved across Queensland, inundating major centres such as Rockhampton, Emerald and Warwick, and many smaller towns such Mundubbera, St George, Theodore and Condamine in the worst known floods on record.
