- When will the east coast deluge end and where, oh where, did it come from?
- The east coast rain and flooding seems endless. Where on Earth is all the water coming from?

'- One-in-100-years' flood talk disastrously misleading and should change, risk experts say
- A new levee and river remodelling for Lismore?
Varying perspectives
