Rain has pelted parts of Queensland’s southeast overnight, leaving thousands without power, submerging cars and causing widespread flash flooding.
As much as 230mm fell in a matter of hours in some parts, the result of a slow-moving storm over the region.
While the immediate threat of heavy rainfall has passed, dozens of roads remain closed across the state’s southeast, while some major motorways, including the Warrego Highway and Sunshine Motorway, are facing heavy delays due to floodwaters.
Here are the current road closures as of Thursday morning.
