Flooding has caused havoc across the Coffs Coast with the Orara River bursting its banks, inundating roads and cutting off towns in the process.
The town of Nana Glen has been split in two with the Edward Sharpe Bridge sitting below more than three metres of water which, together with flooding at on Bucca and Morrows Road, means many residents are now stranded.
Local Nana Glen RFS captain John Lardner and some of his fellow brigade members are stranded at home, unable to assist, likening it to being "on an island".
There has been significant flooding across the Coffs Coast as the Orara River rose to more than 10 metres. Pictured here is Edward Sharpe bridge and Morrows Road. Coffs Harbour floods.
