The Brisbane floods actually occurred in January 2011, not 2010.
The 2010-2011 Brisbane floods affected over 200,000 Australians. Damage to the area was estimated at 2.4 billion dollars, and 75% of the state of Queensland was declared to be a disaster zone.

If this is a reference to the January 2011 floods in eastern Australia, the death toll stands at 22, as of January 31.During Australia's history of European settlement, hundreds of people have died in Australia because of floods, but the figures have not been anywhere as high as in some parts of the world.
If you are talking about the 2010 - 2011 QLD floods then it was La Nina. Look up the walker cycle, El Nino or La Nina to find out what im talking about
Floods and severe storms with hail are the most common natural disasters in Brisbane. These storms have become increasingly stronger in intensity, with lightning strikes and high, gusting winds causing major damage. Bushfires occasionally occur in the mountains around the city, but these never cause major damage. Cyclones very rarely reach as far south as Brisbane, the last one significant one being in 1974 when "Cyclone Wanda" dumped a huge amount of water in the Brisbane catchment, contributing to massive floods. Having said that, however, meteorologists are predicting more cyclones to occur near Brisbane in the 2010-2011 Summer season.
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. River levels are not expected to go down until mid-January. On 11 January 2011, the Brisbane River broke its banks, with expectation that it will cause the worst floods in history, in terms of damage.
In December 2010 the floods got to 10.2m. In 1853 the floods got to 41 feet.
