East Coast Floods

The 2022 East Coast Australia floods were one of the nation’s worst recorded flood disasters with a series of floods that occurred from February to April in Southeast Queensland, the Wide Bay–Burnett and parts of coastal New South Wales. There was consistent rain for weeks, with water levels rapidly rising. Lismore notably affected, waters reaching 14.4m. Throughout South-East Queensland, more than 20,000 homes were inundated, and power outages affected over 51,000 properties. Previous Australian Prime Minister, Scott Morrison, stated “these are floods that we have not seen in living memory in anyone’s lifetime, and even before that”. Insurance Council of Australia figures calculated the cost of claims from the disaster was $2.31 Billion with more than 91,000 domestic building claims.
