MINOR FLOODING EASING ALONG THE LOWER BARCOO RIVER AT RETREAT AND ALONG THE THOMSON RIVER AT CAMOOLA PARK AND LONGREACH
Significant rainfall over upper parts of the Thomson and Barcoo River catchments over a week ago has caused elevated river levels and flooding. No significant rainfall is forecast over the next few days.
