Tis a bit wet here. 246 mm of rain in the 25 hours to 5.00 this afternoon. Piddling down still.

Motorhome was marooned earlier.

How’s everyone else going as they are saying this is right long the east coast

Hi Derek
Yes it is a bit wet. Apparently the Logan river (at the back of
the village) is on the way up.
It is always good to have plenty of food in the pantry so you don't have to go out onto the roads.
stay safe

Spoke to my neighbours this afternoon.
They had 150mm in the rain gauge in 6 hours.
They've been twice today to pump water out of our pool.

No sign of slowing up on BOM RADAR.

Just after 4.00 am and the first coffee of the day. Sleep has not come easy this night.

Hopefully we will see an easing of the rain today but not hopeful.

Fortunately we are dry and safe inside here at home but many others in our area are not. Been many evacuations across the Lockyer in the past 24 hours.

Hi
They are saying the rain could be here to tuesday next week. I hope not. As the river is coming up there is enough water in the farm across the road to replace the sugar cane with rice
Stay save
regards Kev

Eased right off here since midnight and looking around at the council flood cameras water has gone down. Then again wouldn’t take much to come up again.

They had to rescue some people off the roof of a house in Grantham late yesterday.

Already out here some places have exceeded the 2011 flood heights.
