Queensland 7 Day Rainfall Forecast

Queensland sees storms from the tropical north to the south east corner, often firing up through the afternoon and evening along the ranges before drifting east.

This forecast shows rain expected across Queensland over the next seven days, in millimetres. Tap any point for a reading, or open the national Australia map.

Pale blues show light falls, greens and yellows a useful soaking, and orange through purple the heaviest totals. Treat totals as a broad regional guide and check warnings close to the event.

Using the Queensland rainfall forecast safely

This map is forecast guidance, not a warning. Totals change with every model run, and a single storm can drop far more rain on one catchment than the map suggests. Official rainfall, flood and severe weather warnings from the Bureau of Meteorology always take priority for Queensland. Never drive through floodwater.

For rain already falling, use the rainfall radar and observations. For storm risk, see the Queensland thunderstorm forecast map.

Queensland in focus

The national rainfall forecast framed on Queensland, using exactly the same millimetre colour scale as every other view so you can compare areas fairly.

Clear issued and valid times

Every map states when the forecast was produced and the period it covers — the next seven days — in Australian eastern time.

Guidance, not a warning

Plan travel, outdoor work and farm operations around it, but Bureau of Meteorology rainfall and flood warnings always come first.
