Nah, not going to happen. Wivenhoe has a no rain zone over it

Marburg and Esk will be heavily flooded though. (no one on here at those places are there

Re: south qld and brissie storm warning

For anyone that heard the Standard Emergency Warning Signal (SEWS) go off - it is usually only used for cyclones, and it was activated this time due to gusts over 100km/hr at Amberley (near Ipswich)

Just two very heavy short showers here. No hail but obviously drove out of Burleigh just as their hail storm hit. Beautiful today though
