FLOODING LIKELY TO BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS A broad trough system will linger across parts of western and northern Queensland for several days, maintaining deep tropical moisture and enhancing shower and storm activity across the region. In the tropical east, the rainfall focus will contract to Far North Queensland during this weekend. Moderate to locally heavy falls are possible, with the highest totals likely close to the coast and ranges. Catchments are relatively wet to very wet after recent rainfall, with river level rises and areas of flooding likely to become more widespread over the next few days. Rapid river level rises and flash flooding are possible in areas that receive the heaviest rainfall. Road closures and community isolation are occurring in some areas, with additional areas likely to be affected over the next few days. The situation will be monitored closely and Flood Warnings will be issued as required.
