    On the stats. Fully agree 1/1000 might be tough to prove at a local level A fishing yarn perhaps. Missed the reporter standing in the water. Some real colour to the news report my have needed them on a roof for a day or so

    Was Noah around when the last 1000 year flood occurred? Maybe not, so who did they ask? He was the bloke who knew a thing or two about floods.

    I've heard 1/200, 1/1000 and 1/2000. I think they make it up as they report.

    I saw footage of a D4 driving at speed through floodwaters at Scarborough, Qld, on the weekend. From the reports, the vehicle drove through the waters several times, with it's bow waves washing through houses.

    The people who put the footage up, also gave the rego. number.
