The floods affecting Australia this summer (2010-2011) began in parts of Queensland as early as December 10. With many properties already under threat, conditions worsened considerably when a widespread cyclone system hit northern Queensland on Christmas Day, dumping huge amounts of rainfall right across the state.
The floods really began to be felt just after Christmas as major centres like Rockhampton and Bundaberg were inundated. The floods then hit many other towns, until finally on 11 January, the Brisbane River actually began to break its banks.
