FLOOD WARNING FOR THE CONDAMINE RIVER, BALONNE RIVER AND TRIBUTARIES AND MARANOA RIVER Issued at 7:48 AM on Sunday the 5th of December 2010 by the Bureau of Meteorology, Brisbane.

Fast river rises will continue in the Maranoa River downstream of the Mitchell area to Beardmore Dam during today and Monday causing moderate to major flooding.

Upper Condamine: Recent rains have caused stream rises and minor to moderate flooding upstream of Warwick and in creeks in the Warwick to Allora area. Rises will extend to the Warwick area and downstream in the Condamine River today but generally cause only minor flooding.

Balonne River and tributary creeks: Recent rains have also caused rises and minor flooding in Bungil Creek around Roma and in the Balonne River from the Surat area to Beardmore Dam. Rises will continue in these areas today causing some minor to moderate flooding.

Maranoa River: Rises and moderate flooding have peaked in the Mitchell area. Fast river rises will continue downstream of the Mitchell area to Beardmore Dam during today and Monday causing moderate to major flooding.

Lower Balonne River system: River rises will extend to the lower Balonne River system below Beardmore Dam during the next week, but with existing upstream flows, generally cause only minor to moderate flooding.

Next Issue: The next warning will be issued at about 3pm Sunday. River heights are constantly updated on the Bureau's website.

FLOOD WARNING FOR THE CONDAMINE AND BALONNE RIVER SYSTEM Issued at 7:27 AM on Sunday the 9th of January 2011 by the Bureau of Meteorology, Brisbane.

The Balonne River at St George reached a peak of 13.2 metres during Saturday and

PB2-8(23) 127 remains at that level now (Sunday morning). Major flood levels will remain high (above 13 metres) during the next few days.

Moderate to major flooding extends along the Condamine and Balonne River system. Rises will extend downstream of the Loudoun Bridge area to the Chinchilla Weir area during the next few days causing renewed major flooding, but river levels will remain well below the peaks recorded during the Christmas-New Year period.

CONDAMINE RIVER - UPPER CONDAMINE TO LOUDOUN BRIDGE: Minor to moderate flooding is generally easing again, although a renewed minor flood peak is expected at Warwick today. Further rain is forecast for the eastern Darling Downs area from today through to Tuesday which will cause renewed rises in creeks in the area, and may produce renewed Condamine River rises.

MYALL CREEK: A second minor flood peak of 2.3 metres occurred at Dalby during Saturday afternoon and creek levels are now falling again below minor flood level. Renewed rises are possible with the forecast rain.

BALONNE RIVER TO BEARDMORE DAM: Major flooding continues to fall slowly around Surat and Weribone. Record flood levels peaked in the Barrackdale area during Friday night about 1.5 metres higher than the March 2010 flood level, but have only fallen about 20 centimetres. River levels in the area between Weribone and Barrackdale will be very slow to recede over the next few days.

The river level at Warroo above Beardmore Dam is also falling very slowly.

BALONNE RIVER - ST GEORGE TO NSW BORDER: At 6am Sunday, the Balonne River at St George was 13.2 metres and holding at its peak which was reached during Saturday.

Major flood levels will remain high (above 13 metres) during the next few days.

Predicted River Heights/Flows: Balonne River at:
