Oh yeah lol. Its been comin' down all over in places that had forgotten what real rain was all about. The Channel Country is really living up to it name this week. Or maybe they should just call it "Half of Queensland Underwater" Country. There have been some big falls out that way. A couple of hundred mm predicted for here tomorrow
More rain !.. aside a few clear nights around the new moon
( for a change) it rained almost every day in febuary .. wish some of this could go where you guys need it .
My boys won't be going to school tomorrow.
I was lucky to be able to get my youngest to his primary school, the causeways were both flowing.
If Kilcoy Bridge goes under, well, there won't be any high school either.
Kilcoy Bridge went under a little while ago. Gosh it's quiet now there's no cars or trucks about.
It was busy this morning at work, people coming in to buy up on staples.

The water is now 18 inches deep in my yard and rising. Water is under the house but we are one of the lucky ones as our house is 8 feet above ground level, we have opened up the house for anyone in the street to take refuge. I am stuck at work and my wife is stuck at home and we are both very worried as the local council is expecting the biggest flood in Roma's history. According to the flood maps I have access to water was 3 feet deep in my yard in 1932 (not sure of date as part of it is mouse affected). The highway is now cut in town with 18 inches of water over the road.
Just looking at BOM and the rain appears to have eased north of Roma but there is still alot of runoff to come.

not good - did your wife take the image above this morning? Hope everything goes ok
Flooded in at the moment , half a meter or more over chinaman creek and rising, I am in no danger as I am about 20 meters above the creek
I have lots of food but I don't think the creek will be up for more than a couple of days that will, so nothing to worry about.
85mm overnight and more to come
not good - did your wife take the image above this morning? Hope everything goes ok
I took the image this morning but not long after that the water receeded and was clear.
I had a phone call about 3 hours later to say that water was again coming down the road and by the time I drove 2k the water had risen enough for the SES to close the road and threaten me with arrest if I tried to go around the barricade (not that I would anyway). I value my life and I know my wife will be ok with a house full of people (10 at last count).
