"The rain battering our roof came in violent waves, reaching crescendos that
seemed impossible to exceed, only to intensify further and further throughout
the night.

Messages between friends and neighbours filled my phone on 28 February 2022. My
family and our home, on a hill and a safe distance from any waterways, was out
of harm’s way. Thousands of others in the northern rivers region of New South
Wales were not. Their lives and their communities had changed forever.

I was new to the region and naive about its susceptibility to floods."

Cheers,
