STOP BUILDING ON THE FLOOD PLAINS
Well it did happen but that’s in Sydney australia
Please keep saying this........Get the train to Windsor and you can see the flood plain and now they are building shopping centres and housing developments there. Out government is useless. What about the Greater Sydney Planning people they should all be sacked.
All government subdivisions that were on shops and buildings except on flood Plains should be made into an Amazon Forest for the Earth lungs to breathe and inbuilt on higher ground read
I was born in Kurrajong and lived in Richmond during the 1978 flood. As a kid, you didn't realise just how serious the situation was. I remember my Dad driving us along Windsor Road (next to the RAAF base) to where the water level had peaked. We looked across, at what then resembled an ocean, towards the sections of Windsor that were still visible. It was so surreal, I've never forgotten it. Take care everyone.
So if they know it will flood every 10-15 years, with a major flood every 50-60 years, why aren't government engineers figuring out a way to improve drainage, build taller bridges, enforce regulations on builders in the areas to build taller homes or flood-proof elevated homes? It's no different to fire-prone areas, we need to plan ahead and mitigate these risks as much as possible
One way to mitigate the risk would be to not develop a floodplain
@@somedumbozzie1539 A higher dam wall at Warragamba isn't going to prevent a flood. Thats just wishful thinking.
@@somedumbozzie1539 dumb narrative playing into the libs/labs hands. flooding was mostly caused from stuff downstream of warragam
This brings tears to my eyes.. in 1972 I was born and reared in Penrith and left when I was 23 years old. Also very familiar with Richmond and Windsor.I was too young and never really knew how devastatingly dangerous it was to live in and around this district all of these years and that the threat was so REAL.. Here we are today seeing the effects before our very eyes of a "when it happens again" prediction, yet STILL they buy and sell land and housing none the wiser. My heart goes out to all of people now living this nightmare. There are also a lot of battlers out that way, with not much as it is for some. Hearing the rain tonight, living in the city of Sydney, is far from comforting "knowing" others not far from here are drowning in it.. Heart breaking and devastating for the people AND let's not forget the animals who also are suffering through all of this.. She'll be right mate, won't cut it this time dear ones.
Yahweh is an embodied replica of a pre-biblical group of violent gods confirmed from tablets dug up in the Iraq region. I don't think anyone wants this false pagan god 'yahweh' to love them.
Yahweh is NOT the name of the One True God.
You are clearly Protestant. Protestants who continue to splinter into thousands upon thousands of ministries/denominations each with a different interpretation of God's Word/Name/commandments etc with each individual Protestant being their own pope interpreting God's Word as they see fit.
St Peter taught the Bible is not open for private interpretation.
God is not the author of confusion by varying His teachings or doctrines.
Different doctrines is one of the many red flags Protestantism is wrong.
For you own good, don't associate the Hebrew version of the Holy Name of the Redeemer, Y'Shua, with a pagan god... that's sacrilege and blasphemy against the first 2 commandments.
Anyone who takes to the time to read the life of Martin Luther, a man who blasphemed the Holy Beloved LORD with dreadful, unspeakable vulgarity, will never be a Protestant.
Whatever Protestant sect you belong to, it'd be for your own salvation get out before it's too late.
Great video, now people have to ask themselves do they want to continue living in these locations?
We lived near McGraths Hill and went to school in Windsor, I remember people storing their furniture and equipment in our turkey sheds, their homes later under water to roof height, the rail line washed away near Vineyard, old Windsor bridge was totally under water and lapping at the steps to the old hotel, water almost up to the bank near the Doctors House where Dr Skinner's practice was, down our road the Parker families big two story hereitage home and race horse stud was safe, and watching the Army in an Army Duck come out of the water into the road and tossing oranges to us kids, they dropped food off too and a big tin of Sunshine powered milk, it's funny the details you remember. As kids it was an adventure, that was in 1961 but, looking at it now through this video it would have been frightening and heartbreaking for those whose homes were under water, we were cut off but safe . We left Windsor not long afterwards, thankfully it was the only flood I experienced.
My heart goes out to all those experiencing it now 💙😥
So in other words if the dam was higher it would not matter. If the dam was lower it would not matter. If there was no dam you would still get flooding.
So why raise the dam? Floods would happen regardless. Still be over 10 metres anyway.
if there was no dam we would have nothing to drink 'plz remember that.
@@davechristian7543 obviously but raising the dam just for flood protection there is no point.
Floods have always been around ,way before dividing the land..
Why are they allowed to build on a flood plain? it's not like they dont know about it.
Why are houses not built on stilts in the manner of the classic Queenslander that was an architectural response to flooding and tropical heat? Developers have a ‘cost effective’ and cheap style of architecture (if you can call it that) that is about maximum profits. Flood plains are interfluvial and are naturally prone to flooding. Human stupidity arrogance and greed are deadly qualities in our species. Raising the Warragamba Dam wall will never mitigate alluvial flooding.
This is an amazing video, I'm sharing it with all my friends and family. Thank you NSW SES!
How on earth could you leave out 6th August, 1986? Largest ever rainfall in Sydney on a single day. Rain fell at an inch an hour for the whole day.
zordmaker I remember it well.
I was doing work experience at a smash repairs at Riverstone. The rain was so loud on the tin roof we couldn't speak to each other.
Took a full 7 days for the bridges to be cleared
Wait flooding like that can happen litterally any time of the year?
@@taylormatthews6086 Of course it can. Any time an east coast low or trough decides to park its arse on the north coast and there's a stubborn high down there between Victoria and New Zealand, we're gonna cop it. The law of probabilities suggests we're in for more... because this has been the first big one for nearly 30 years.
@@zordmaker could happen again soon we are lucky that Penrith NSW didn't go completely under only the side could of been worse,
Inch? Metric please
I live in Maitland in the Hunter Valley where it has flooded three times in the thirty years we’ve been here. They have dedicated flood zones, levee banks etc. last year it was a record flood and no one’s home was destroyed. Sydney needs to learn.
This flood could be the big one this video is talking about.
Stay safe everyone
hello, 2021 here
Guess you guys saw it coming. Not too hard, but Govs don't plan ahead much anymore.
Hope everyone gets through alright, best wishes from Qld.
I would say governments do plan, just badly. The Jordan Springs area is a case in point. All you have to do is follow the money.
1960 : Warragamba dam overflows
2021 : Hold my beer
Edit thanks for 20 likes😇😀
A fantastic video presentation, what is the name of the music?
There needs to be more dams.
Didn't you watch the video? 5 out of the 10 biggest floods happened AFTER the building of the Warragamba dam. And now that is 6 out of 11 in 2021. Dams don't magically stop floods. smh.
Funny how extreme weather events coincide with king tides.
Mum always said it rains heaviest around the full moon.
She has lived in the Hawkesbury catchment since 1960
well this week proved that to be not true.
So glad the king tide didn’t happen
It's 2021 and guess what?
YOU WERE WARNED
The photo of the RAAF Base in 1978 is actually Riverstone.
Ses propaganda film . Try and find out the expected flood peaks know all know nothing bionic carrots👎👎👎👎🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕
@@davidflanagan3396 WTF!
@@howardbedwell6429 It's a bot, ignore it.
Widen the choke points perhaps?
and they still build there!
nth richmond bridge is currently under water
Why you don't buy warehouse in Penrith? Prices are cheaper than caringbah e.t.c they said. Yeah nah
2:10
hope people are safe at those areas this year, don't know how can i help.
And what has been done about flood mitigation?
@@somedumbozzie1539 first those arsewipes help create fires now floods 😡
So there is no dam and the Hawkesbury-Nepean floods. They build a 142 meter high dam and the Hawkesbury-Nepean still floods. But that extra 14 meters will fix it yeah?
@@brianprice118 That and giving it a path clear of homes to flow out to sea
I think the more houses that are built on the floodplains the more the water flow will be slowed in a flood. Is that mitigation?
@@emceeboogieboots1608 No. Mitigation is when they change the landscape to give the water somewhere to go. Like a liner park that's carved out so it's the lowest point that leads to the sea.
This message is important and very informative but I don't understand two things here.
1. Since we are so certain about floods through historical data, what has been done by the local/state/federal governments to minimise the impact and damage a potential major flood event can cause? Being a first wold country, surely we can build more dams and reservoirs.
2. Why have the councils allowed land bank owners and builders to populate a flood plain? Is there corruption/greed in the councils? There are new developments everywhere in and around these flood plains.
Because those 3 levels of government have different agendas and full of short term people who are trying to find a ladder to climb somewhere else. No long term plans due to people shiftingand leaving the responsibility to someone less experienced . Books and plans being made 3 times over. Three jurisdictions at loggerheads
Have any politicians seen this I wonder?
Looks like boating territory, unless you build skyhigh and some.
i told you so😂
Now its wayyyyyyy worst...
Talk about predicting the future!
Won't the quarry basins hold a heap of water and help a bit?
So much water!
You know why it keeps repeating the same problems , apart from ever increasing weather intensity ?

it flooded in 1986, i know because i was at hawksbury ag. college
Councils that have subdivided on these flood Plains and the insurance companies that have paid out so many times or not not paid out should be made to go broke to amend this problem and put rainforest where all the flood Plains are like the Amazon what's getting to depleted and redistribute these peoples portion of land maybe a smaller portion of land or a unit on a 4 bedroom unit on higher ground
Yep yep yep but who takes notice until it happens 🤦🏼♀️
