A pulse of tropical activity has generated some heavy totals in far northern parts of the QLD Peninsula. Horn Island was dosed with 81mm, the heaviest rainfall total since February, while further offshore, Coconut Island had a respectable 12mm. Tropical activity isn't unheard of at this time of year - last year around this time Horn Island gathered over 100mm in just a day. However, it is less frequent as the wet season comes to a close by the end of April. Over the next week, a further 50-100mm is a risk around coastal parts of the northern-most edge of the QLD Peninsula. The heaviest 24 hour totals should be Monday and Tuesday, easing throughout the week. Although welcome, this late-season tropical activity is unlikely to make up rainfall deficits, as the wet season as a whole has been significantly drier than average.
