The Bureau of Meteorology advises Moderate to heavy rainfall has been observed across the Mary River catchment which has led to river and creek level rises and flooding. Minor flooding is occurring at Gympie, Marodian and Tiaro.

Further showers and storms are forecast across the catchment for the remainder of Saturday, with the heaviest falls expected Saturday morning which may cause flash flooding and further river and creek level rises.

Kidd Bridge is now closed, residents can still access Gympie/Southside via Normanby Bridge. Due to increased traffic along Normanby, we remind the community to please be patient and drive with care.

Moderate flooding has been reported at Miva.
