Get ready for a wet and stormy weekend ahead! The Bureau of Meteorology has issued warnings for multiple states, predicting severe storms and heavy rain in the coming days. It seems like the recent downpours in Queensland and New South Wales are just the beginning, with other states also expected to experience an increase in moisture.
Yesterday, parts of inland Queensland, eastern New South Wales, far eastern Victoria, and northern Tasmania were covered in storms and showers. The rainfall in these areas was quite intense, with some places in Queensland recording up to 55mm and some parts of NSW receiving 40-60mm in just 30 minutes. Unfortunately, the heavy rain also caused flash flooding in some areas.
Today, a large cloud band stretching across eastern Australia will bring with it humidity, scattered rain, and thunderstorms. It's not looking too good for Queensland, as most of the rain and potential storms are expected to hit inland areas. Brisbane may only see a shower or two. Meanwhile, in NSW, the Sydney metro area, Central Coast, Hunter, and inland regions should brace themselves for thunderstorms and widespread rain. There is a risk of flash flooding and severe thunderstorms in Sydney.
Moving on to Victoria, there may be isolated storms in the north and east, while Melbourne can expect some rain in the morning. But that's not all – according to senior meteorologist Miriam Bradbury, a fresh burst of moisture is heading towards eastern Australia on Saturday. This means more rain and storms for NSW, Queensland, Victoria, and even South Australia. All state capitals, as well as Canberra, could experience some wild weather.
Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a break from the wet weather until next week.
