Innisfail in north Queensland has gained more than 600 millimetres of rain in the last five days, more than it received during Cyclone Larry in March 2006. This recent rain was mainly due to a low (ex-Tropical Cyclone Charlotte) which drew moist winds off the Coral Sea. In the last two days Innisfail has had a massive 434mm, their highest two-day total in 14 years. Much of the Northern Tropical Coast and Tablelands has copped a deluge in the last five days, the highest rainfall in 15 years for many. Babinda, just north of Innisfail has been one of the wettest spots with more than 770mm. Further north Cairns has had 600mm. It has since stopped raining in this region, allowing flood waters to drop. But the main rain area has moved further south past Mackay and has eased. Strengthening easterly winds have also helped spread the rain further inland to the Mount Isa area, where the same system caused flooding a week ago. The low has also caused strong winds, up to 100km/h at Lucinda Point near Townsville, their strongest in three years. Over the next few days the low should weaken near the NT border causing rain in north Queensland to ease to showers and storms and wind to ease.
