A touch soggy...
LOL at mate whose gone to Qld for few weeks to get away from Shit weather... not only is the Shit weather in Qld now but he got sick as hell on the flight LOL!

But the rain moved north and inland toward the Queensland border, including 24mm at Mullumbimby and 22mm at Limevale.

On Tuesday, weather stations in the Capricornia and Wide Bay and Burnett regions, particularly near Yeppoon, recorded more than 100mm of rain in just six hours.

So long as you have tried your best, you should have no regrets.

Fair bit of damage up here. The rowing course has been swept away and is tangled up on the rocks and bridge piers.
