31mm yesterday and overnight.

Drove to Cairns this morning. Eureka Creek west of Dimbulah had come over the bridge sometime. Bit of vegetation on the carriageway. Went up to the causeway instead. Fairly high, but not too close. Skies looked good. No rain around. Decided to keep going. Water had been over the road at Arriga.

Came back sooner than planned. At Mareeba you could see a wall of black to the north. Mutchilba to Dimbulah dumped rain so hard it washed all the mud off the car.

Nice to see water lying everywhere, and all the dry creeks running again. Pump Creek causeway at Almaden was running, but only just.

Looking forward to a slow low now. 😀
