    Latest model output keep the heavier rain in NSW and inland southern QLD. Bit of instability today too so might see a storm amongst the development in the Northerb Rivers.

    The flood watch has been extended and suprised to see it sayd moderate to major flooding in NE NSW – it will take a lot of rain for that to eventuate

    Hi Michael,

    And there have been substantial falls in south east Queensland as well in the past 24 hours.
