Good rain has been falling across four states, bringing welcome relief from the drought in some places, while in others the drenching has come at exactly the wrong time amid harvest.
The biggest falls were again dropped on storm-savaged Brisbane and its surrounds, but big readings have also been taken on the Darling Downs and in northern NSW.
According to The Weather Company, cloud is today lingering over southeast Queensland, eastern NSW, Victoria and Tasmania in a trough that is causing isolated showers.
But there is thick cloud over the eastern interior in another trough, which is generating heavy, squally thunderstorms, while cloud over South Australia in a weakening trough is also causing showers, mainly inland.
In SA, the Bureau of Meteorology reports that the best falls were in the north and remote parts of the State, with Andamooka recording 13mm, Mt Eba 25mm, Roxby Downs 15mm, Woomera 21mm, Bruce 12mm, Hawker 20mm, Pt Augusta 10mm, Maree 20mm, Moomba 15mm.
Just north of the border Alice Springs has recorded 48mm.
That outback rain has also delivered for Queensland with the Bureau reporting Barcaldine receiving 14mm, Toomba 43mm, and Richmond 26mm, while in the far north Babinda received 18mm, Mareeba 37mm, and Port Douglas 80mm.
In the south of Queensland, parts of Brisbane and surrounds received more than 75mm, while in rural areas Childers and Gayndah scored 8mm each, Esk 19mm, Gatton 33mm, Harrisville 44mm, Toowoomba 18mm, Stanthorpe 33mm, Warwick 29mm, Inglewood 25mm, and Bollon 14mm.
Just south of Brisbane in NSW, Casino received 24mm, Grafton 31mm and Mullumbimby 64mm, while further west Armidale recived 30mm, Glen Innes 41mm, and Tenterfield 40mm.
But the rain is also threatening harvest in areas like Moree which received 27mm, while Gunnedah scored 45mm, Breeza 58mm, Tambar Springs 59mm, Baradine 68mm, Burren Junction 29mm, Binnaway 42mm, Walgett 19mm, Narromine 28mm, Gulargambone 56mm, Coonamble 71mm, Condobolin 30mm, and Dubbo 38mm.
In the central parts, Gloucester received 26mm, Taree 39mm, Denman 25mm, Murrurndi 28mm, Gulgong 39mm, Mudgee 39mm, and Orange 17mm, while in the far west Tibooburra received 25mm.
However, the system is yet to deliver in any significant way for Victoria, where the best falls have been Ballarat with 10mm, Shepparton 10mm, and Echuca 11mm.
