Morandoo is definately underwater. We had to go in there and get a car this morning, and where we drove (in a captiva), the water was up to the bottom of the doors.
There is also a PTW Territory stranded in the middle of the 'pond' covering Selwyn St, the water was above the bottom of the doors on it.

Seconded. In Morandoo the water is about 6 inches above the railhead, 1 Road was underwater not far out of the unloading bins and the Territory is still stuck over 24 hours after it was, um...drowned...
I'll upload a couple of photo's of said Territory when I get home. I can't access fotopic from here. And the Territory was still there when I came home today at 1700... When they'll get it out is anyone's guess. Though I dare say it'll be a write-off having sat in the water for that long.

Why do I think that Territory has a WorkSafe Sticker on the side of the car...

Que, I think you'll find it's a Pacific National sticker (being a PN car after all).
