MODERATE FLOODING OCCURRING AT MIVA AND TIARO
MINOR FLOODING OCCURRING AT DAGUN POCKET AND GYMPIE
Moderate to heavy rainfall recorded across the Mary River catchment since Monday has caused minor to moderate flooding along the Mary River.

Moderate flooding continues at Miva and Tiaro, where renewed rises are possible with forecast rainfall. Upstream, a second flood peak is now around Gympie, where minor flooding is occurring. This second peak is likely to cause prolonged moderate flooding at Miva and Tiaro into Thursday.
Following the additional heavy rainfall in the overnight period, renewed rises and further minor flooding are likely at Dagun Pocket and Gympie, with a peak reaching levels similar to the initial Tuesday flood peak. This peak is forecast to arrive overnight Wednesday into Thursday.
