Optimistically, i'm hoping that it moves through fast - but the line of rain stretching up the coast is moving down vertically - it's not a front that goes past - it keeps feeding in for the full length. Anywhere in the path of that is set for a scary night.

The system is moving south, hugging the coast, maybe creeping inland, which is not good. The 'eye' would be just right of the radar centre in Brisbane.

Totals since 9am are over 100ml (at 8pm)- those places can expect another 100-200 mil overnight. Then more tomorrow.

Some places hit 200 yesterday. Another drowning - a couple missing.
