Feedback folder.

A little background.

Seven years ago today, my town was hit by what was later described as an ‘inland tsunami’ of extreme flash flooding. It’s something we never thought would happen here, as my town is on a plateau on top of the Great Dividing Range. Floodwaters have to go somewhere; and as we are quite literally on top of a mountain, the only place that water could go was into the valley below us.

The story you have (hopefully) just read is the stark reality of what happened to the villages at the bottom of the range. Some of them received less than a minute’s warning before they were hit, and the small farming community of Grantham was nearly wiped off the map. Seven years later, we still bear the scars.

Powerful and a reminder that one man can make a difference but is he enough. Very powerful. Thank you.

Very powerful story. Not even Superman is always fast enough to prevent tragedy. Very timely in light of the severe winter weather that hit the eastern US last week, and the California mudslides and flooding this week.

Thanks Carrie and Cuidadora! This was a truly difficult story for me to write and I was honestly hesitant to post it, so I’m glad it was well received

Powerful reminder that no matter how strong Superman is even he has his limits. Mother Nature is a beast for anyone...even Superman. whinging

Hi Feli!

Poor people. Poor Superman. Powerful is indeed what sprang to mind first.
