More heavy rain in Qld as low moves south

A tropical low which formed in the Gulf of Carpentaria just before Christmas is the gift that keeps on giving for Queensland's drought-stricken farmers.

The low continues to dump rain on parched areas of the state as it tracks in a southerly direction, with some areas receiving more rain in the past two days than in 2015.

Bureau of Meteorology forecaster Shalwin Singh says the system has drenched the Maranoa and Warrego district, with the area receiving falls over 50mm in the 24 hours to 7am (AEST) Monday.

Grazier Will Roberts said his property at Morven, near Charleville in the state's southwest, was already benefiting from the downpour.

"Our grasses have started to kick away and you couldn't ask for a better change," he told ABC Radio.

However, the low has also prompted a number of flood warnings, including a major warning current for the Flinders, Norman and Leichhardt rivers.

It is still moving south and is expected to drench the Capricorn, Wide Bay-Burnett and Southeast Coast districts on Monday and Tuesday.

Meanwhile, a trough that formed off the coast on Sunday night has resulted in falls in excess of 50mm in the Central Coast and Whitsunday districts.
