Ms Boekel warns the situation is still evolving and to be wary of flash flooding from intense pockets of rain. "The next 24 hours we will continue to see that rainfall, from the Gold Coast all the way up to just south of Bundaberg." "We are not going to see reprieve for this event until at least tomorrow evening. "We have the downstream effects of that flooding in Gympie, so what happens at Tiaro and Maryborough will also play out in the coming days but we are expecting to see flood peaks in those townships as well. "It is becoming more likely that we will see major flooding in Gympie as well.
" how the rivers respond to that noting that we have seen rainfall today and likely to see there's really low-lying areas start to see more inundation as we see the rain continuing throughout today and tomorrow," she said. Ms Boekel said the BOM is keeping a close eye on the intense rainfall that is following downstream to the Brisbane River. "We really do need to see what happens for the rest of today and overnight tonight to see where the peaks will be along the Brisbane River and exactly how affected Brisbane City will be," she said. Senior BOM meteorologist Laura Boekel says it's a 'watch and wait situation' for flooding in the Brisbane River. The council says Granville residents need to be prepared to be cut off from Maryborough "for potentially several days". Lamington Bridge over the Mary River at Ferry Street was closed at 2pm and authorities will close the Granville Bridge if the river level hits 5.5 metres. Environment Canadas weather web site provides official weather warnings, current conditions, forecasts, and weather models, for public and marine areas in. "But we've had over 300 millimetres in the past 24 hours across much of the catchment and much more is anticipated so we need to be aware and prepared for any of the eventualities which include a major flood," Mr Seymour said. "There's a wide range of predictions from a minor to a major flood coming from the Bureau of Meteorology because of the unpredictability of the amount of rain that we're having right now.

In the event of heavy rainfall, tune in to local radio news station WFIR AM 960, or other local radio or television stations like Roanoke Valley Television RVTV-3 to listen for flood warnings in your area. Flooding along the Roanoke River can typically be predicted 6 to 12 hours before it occurs, and warning information will be broadcast over local radio and television stations. These gauges allow officials to predict when and how high flooding will be along the Roanoke River. at the top of each page on our website shows the current flood status. To aid in this prediction, the City maintains a number of rainfall and stream gauges as far away as Blacksburg. We forecast floods and issue flood warnings to municipal flood co-ordinators. Since the Roanoke River drains a much larger area than any of the other creeks in Roanoke, its flood waters are more easily predicted in advance.
