Warnings are still out for heavy rain as at 17:48 Saturday afternoon. Where the heavy rain is falling is in the Catchment areas for the dams. So we could be in for an interesting Summer if the long range forecast are right. They are still working on the Somerset Dam wall and it can’t take the fall capacity of the Dam yet. Plus we would now have total saturation in regards to the ground for water. As a result we could see possible flooding once again. I really hope that this is not going to be the case.

We had to head over to Bracken Ridge this afternoon and on the way back just after 17:00 my wife and I noticed that Youngs Crossing Road was closed and other routes were advised. This will be a result of the release of water in the North Pine Dam as they are working on that as well.

Tomorrow is still shaping up to be a storm day and especially if this rain was to clear out a bit and we had some heating in the form of the sun for a couple of hours.

Please keep a watch out for any warnings if storms develop and a eye to the sky as a heads up. It could be embedded clearing storms as well.
