Falls of close to 50mm have been recorded in key agricultural areas of inland Queensland overnight, while some coastal farmers are now hoping the rain will stop.
The coastal system which has dominated the weekend's weather is weakening, but a new upper level low is delivering for inland broadacre areas.
According to the Bureau of Meteorology, good falls have been received across southern and western Queensland in the last 24 hours.
Blackall recorded 46mm, Emerald 36mm, Rolleston 23mm, Longreach 16mm, Isisford 21mm, Injune 36mm, Tambo 25mm, Charleville 26mm, Roma 23mm, St George 14mm, Miles 20mm, Dalby 8mm and Toowoomba 9mm.
However, it was the coastal areas which again were inundated with Gympie receiving another 107mm over the last 24 hours, while Nambour copped a whopping 169mm.
As a result, the Bureau has issued flood warnings for the Sunshine Coast region.
For the day ahead it is forecasting rain areas with possible thunder over southern and southeast parts of the State, with isolated moderate falls possible.
There will be light morning rain or drizzle over the central interior and Capricornia districts with some isolated afternoon showers.
The Bureau says the upper level low over western Queensland will move southeast towards the southern border by late today and eventually out of the State and into northeast NSW on Tuesday.
The rain associated with the upper trough will also contract to the southeast corner by early Tuesday and then out of the State during the day.
Moist south to south-east winds will extend across the southern half of the state during and after the passage of the upper trough.
This will in effect provide some cloudy conditions with morning drizzle and isolated afternoon showers extending as far north as the Central West and southern Coalfields on Tuesday.
The morning drizzle and isolated showers will contract to the southeast interior on Wednesday.
