Ipswich flooding update

Overnight the Ipswich area received 20-25 mm across the Southern and Western region, with 30-50 mm in a band across the northern region from Grandchester to Moggill.

This has led to rises in the following streams as follows:

3m Western Ck

2.8m Warrill Ck

1.3m Purga Ck

3m Bremer Rv at Rosewood and Walloon

2m Bremer Rv at Three Mile and One Mile

1.1m Bundamba Ck

Most of the streams are still rising, with rain continuing to fall at the rate of up to 2-5 mm an hour. 

Bureau suggests rain to clear to showers by this afternoon, showers for next few days.
