I haven't popped into here for a good while. I know. Just jumping in to say that I'm fine and that "holy crap this is insane".

Brisbane residents have breathed a sigh of relief after the Brisbane River peaked at about 4.46m around 5am (AEDT) — well below forecasts of 5.5m and the 5.45m peak in 1974.

The death toll from the state's flood crisis, which has also devastated communities west of Brisbane, stands at 13 but there are grave concerns for another nine people.

At least 70 people are still unaccounted for in these communities.

There was a lot of water in Brisbane's CBD this morning, but the lower-than-expected peak had saved many businesses and high-rise apartment buildings, Brisbane Lord Mayor Campbell Newman said.
