A change in the weather will put a dampener on Queensland ’s school holidays , with heavy rainfall , thunderstorms and possible flash flooding forecast for parts of the south-east. From Thursday, rain and thunderstorms will increase across SEQ and north-east NSW, with up to 30mm possible, particularly towards the Gold Coast and Darling Downs regions.
Bureau of Meteorology senior meteorologist Harry Clark said areas around the edges of Brisbane could be affected, but heavy rainfall was more likely to impact those further south. “There is potential for totals around 100mm but that really depends on where that trough moves,” Clark said. A trough that has lingered over central Australia is expected to gradually move across Queensland and reach the south-east on Wednesday. This is likely to trigger thunderstorms and rainfall, with some uncertainty around the chance of flooding. “It’s been a wet month, so the soil is still holding a lot of moisture … and dams and creeks are quite full,” Clark said
