FED:QLD floods keep crews busy with rescues
A family has managed to escape from their submerged vehicle .. while another person
has been rescued from a car swamped in a paddock .. during continued flooding in Queensland.
Rescue crews have also responded to reports of a car being swept away at Wallaville
.. north of Brisbane.
The three incidents have prompted authorities to again warn people not to cross flooded roads.
In New South Wales .. forecasts offer hope of a reprieve from the natural disaster
.. which has plagued the state since late last month.
But the residents of Coonamble and Wee Waa remain isolated due to flooding of the Castlereagh
and Namoi rivers .. and major flood alerts remain in place for several regions.
