News: According to Richmond Labor MP Justine Elliot, whose electorate covers flood zones including Ballina, Byron Bay, Mullumbimby and Tweed Heads, Lismore was the only region to receive official SES weather warnings.

Remember even that warning for Lismore was rescinded before the floods came and evacuees were sent home.

Ms Elliot claims her electorate “urgently” needs evacuation centres in Byron Bay and Ballina as the situation escalates.

According to Bom the 'non-cyclone' that looks, feels, acts like a cyclone will continue to drift north, then move out to sea tomorrow. We'll see.

For some reason the rain seems to crank up at night. If it's lingering on the coast tonight then there will be places still getting pounded to the south west of the 'eye'.

Wind has picked up.
