Just a quick update as I'm a little busy at the moment. 

The photos really don't do the tree damage justice.  There are now nearly 100 trees uprooted.  There are probably another 100 with crown damage which will most likely need removal and at least 50 that have started to lean and the root ball is exposed so they are going to come down at some stage so will need to be removed.  And that's without doing a proper assessment tree by tree which will be needed.

The first contractors were on site yesterday and others are arriving today to start the mammoth clean up.  214mm of rain in the 24 hours to 9am Monday hasn't helped and there will be a lot of turf damage as we complete the clean up.  We have now had 632mm since it started raining last Wednesday.  The river has come over but that was only just on this mornings high tide.  The internal flooding remains as the water just has nowhere to go.
