Floods ("worst in decades") force mass evacuations in Queensland, Australia

[Lucid]

North-eastern Australia's worst flooding in decades is continuing to cause chaos across the region.

Around 1,000 people in Queensland have been evacuated, including the entire population of the town of Theodore.

The government has declared Theodore and two other towns in the region to be disaster zones, and forecasters say the floods have not yet peaked.

The cost of the damage is expected to top A$1bn (£650m), including massive losses of sunflower and cotton crops.

Saw this on the news just recently. There have been quite a few floods in Queensland in recent years. I just pray that everyone is doing ok up there
