brisbane is barely getting good rain out of this in general it is very patchy coastal type rain, not the deluge sort of stuff that saturates the soil and causes floods, that is summer type stuff.

somerset & wivenhoe are too far off the coast for any of this to reach them, unlike hinze, manchester, enoggerra & kurwongbah and the sunshine coast dam (name eludes me) they are all within the edge of the coastal rains strip so they get benefits from this sort of rain.

the only thing that will fill the majors here is a cyclone to cross the coast say between mackay and rockhampton, needs to be catagory 4 type with lots of monsoonal rain in it, then the dams will fill.

we've had 13mm over the past few days, and we live northern bayside.
