It's happening again believe it or not. 280 mm of rain overnight at Killarney, about 70 kms from here. Lotta places over 150. Big falls on Brisbane inland, Sunshine Coast where they've been hit for several days in a row - they had up to 200 mil a few days ago, then 150-200 again in past 24 hrs with torrential rain again today - places already over 100 since 9am. Biggest falls around the mountains.

So far it's been ok here, 20-30 mil overnight, but it's hit or miss so that could change. The water table is currently the same height as the earth table so any rain will be amplified. I'm hopeful it will stay west as it moves south, but there's no guarantee. With no tracking product from BoM and pressure charts only updated once every 24hrs, you don't really know - only watch the radar, see where it's vaguely heading.

Looking at it on the sat it's clearly another East Coast Low - also not known as, but should be - Cyclone.

The rotating system on the coast of Brisbane is a split off from a huge system which was on the coast of north Qld a couple of days ago (200mm falls) - that's heading east as you can see on the sat - while a new ECL has sprung up in the same spot as the previous two and is now gaining strength and doing it's own thing. There are places getting smashed again today - this is an unfolding situation.
