Good news for our farmers - rain is on the way. This rain will deliver moisture to some drought-affected areas of Queensland and New South Wales. High cloud looming over Queensland, the Northern Territory and northern South Australia is not producing any rain at the moment, but the situation will evolve in the coming days. As the low pressure trough causing this cloud deepens, showers and storms will pop up. From late tonight and early tomorrow, these thundery showers will be localised to the Gulf Country and North West districts of Queensland. On Friday, this rain will linger around these areas, but a few showers will extend into the Northern Territory and northern South Australia. Saturday is when things will really kick off. A series of troughs will work together to dampen much of the interior with storms and showers. The main relief for farmers looks to come on Sunday, when large areas of rain should trek across western Queensland and New South Wales. Widespread falls in excess of 15mm are looking to occur around Windorah. Heavy showers should persist, with rainfall totals over the next week looking to be widespread up to 30-50mm for much of inland parts of southern Queensland and widespread totals up to 25mm across western New South Wales. For places such as Isisford and Winton, this could be the heaviest June rainfall event in three years. Conditions inland will then gradually ease from around Thursday 18th. Although the rain event will not be drought-breaking, it will bring some much needed moisture to the soil.
