The difference that just 24 hours makes in the modelling system, I unfortunately didn’t take a screen shot of Friday’s forecast accumulated totals for SEQ and NE NSW but they had approx 50 mm for the 8 day run.

Sunday they had a small area of the SEQ , around the North of Brisbane with a possibility of a
100 mm approx. as can be seen by the WATL (access model) below
.


As I said yesterday I was keeping an eye on the rain band to the West of Brisbane and just felt that it may have far reaching impacts into the SEQ and NE NSW. We are now looking at totals of 100-150 mm over the 8 day periods. Tomorrow’s run should show a better indicator of what could take place.

Here is the Access run from this morning.



I have included the latest Satellite imagery. There is a lot oft monsoonal rain in the tropics and it is drifting down through the interior of Western QLD and and crossing the Eastern Coast around the SEQ and NE NSW.

Image 1 is the satellite and image 2 I have highlighted the direction ot the rain band. As the ground is still saturated it is worth just keeping an eye on this.
