Ipswich Mayor Paul Pisasale is a very happy man this morning - blue skies in Ippy with the river not peaking as high as expected.

The Brisbane River around 4 hours before it reaches its flood peak. A bit of debris but nothing major.

Flood waters are NOT safe to swim or paddle in. You don't know what's under them & can carry infection. Stay out. #bigwet

Check out the news crews waiting for flooding to hit Riverside, looks like it's lower than expected #NewsRoom #bigwet http://pbs.twimg.com/media/BBve_HvCAAA6oe-.jpg

As flood levels drop & roads re-appear, don't assume that means you can drive on them yet. They will still need to be inspected. #bigwet

Brisbane River is fast-flowing but the peak hasn't caused too many issues here.

Things are still pretty grim at Logan where Jimboomba, Flagstone, Waterford and McLean have copped it.
Roads in and out are under water, locals in Jimboomba and Flagstone have been cut off by floodwaters and have been without power since Saturday.

South Brisbane Storms administrator Kylie put this composite flood photo together for our other admin, Justin. I felt this was certainly worthy of a share as this shows the full effect of the flooding along the Albert River near Cedar Creek earlier this week. Justin was very fortunate not to lose more belongings as the water levels threatened the house (on stilts!!) and inundated their shed. Hopefully we don't see a repeat of flooding of this magnitude for a very long while. The river level as since subsided significantly but there are still a lot of flooded areas to the south of Brisbane currently, so be careful and stay away from flooded creeks and streams.
