FOR many Boonooroo and Tuan residents, Monday's massive tidal surge was like nothing they've ever seen before.
Resident Robyn Ward lives near the Boonooroo boat ramp and labelled the surge as "extreme."
"We didn't only get the surge from the ocean, we got a surge from all the run-off coming off Bates St … we didn't stand a chance."

"I would say yesterday's tide was about 3.5 metres with the surge."
She said the public toilets near the boat ramp over flowed, swamping nearby yards with sewage.
