Lismore is the the most flood-prone city in Australia
The entire Lismore CBD was underwater
After days of rain, the entire Lismore CBD was underwater and wiped out. The heavy rain led to the Wilsons River breaching its levee overnight, with roads cut off.
The massive clean-up
Locals have begun the massive clean-up: abandoned cars and piles of rubbish line the streets.
Right now, there are unprecedented numbers of people in Lismore who have lost their homes and businesses. Here are ways to support them right now while everyone is waiting for their houses and businesses to dry out.
