Eastern Australia also experienced disastrous floods back in 2011. That event killed a reported 35 people across New South Wales, Victoria, and Queensland. Like the current disaster, the 2011 floods and torrential rain led to billions of dollars in losses for the country’s economy and prompted thousands of people to evacuate from damaged homes.
