Brisbane has experienced one of its heaviest November downpours in decades — and there is plenty more on the way for south-east Queensland.
Bureau of Meteorology meteorologist Helen Reid said Brisbane had been drenched in 121 millimetres in the past 24 hours. Ms Reid said the wet weather was far from over and rain was expected until the beginning of December. Some rain gauges in central and southern Queensland have already recorded hundreds of millimetres of rain this month, with more expected over coming days.

When you look at the world wide phenomenon of extreme weather extra heavy rain, floods, extreme heat, in the last 12 months; a thoughtful person would say it’s climate change, an unkind but useful idiot would say it’s not climate change.
Wow scientists should look into this..it's like for every degree of warming at least 8% extra moisture is held in the atmosphere and leads to much more powerful weather be it storms or droughts...I am sure it will be all OK when we do nothing, eh scientists...eh?
It's OK... it will never rain again, the dams will never be filled again, we will live in perpetual drought... I SAW THE INTERVIEW!

Who is it warning? I am done with online shopping. Australia post? My things get here from the US really quickly, well-done USA postage, but then they get to Sydney and sit for weeks before posting on. Tracking packages shows this all too often.
