Very heavy rain in the Whitsundays

We had very heavy rain in the Proserpine - Airlie Beach area last night.
Proserpine Airport recorded 95.6mm of rain over the 24 hours to 9am. A whopping 47mm fell between 11pm & midnight - that's a rate of 1130mm per day or 3ft 8in per day.

A small landslide in Woodwark around midnight sent this boulder down the mountain - one more roll and it would have been in our office.
