We've had tornadoes, now floods are on the way and the army is being called in to help out...
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-01-27/l … my/4486270Brisbane and Ipswich will flood this week, though floodwaters will not reach the same heights they did in 2011, Queensland Premier Campbell Newman has revealed.
Modelling suggests floodwaters will inundate 3,600 homes and 1,250 businesses, as torrential rainfall continues to fall across central and southern Queensland.
The state's south-east is also on tornado watch tonight, with high winds expected until at least 8pm.
The Army has deployed three Black Hawk helicopters to help with flood evacuations in Bundaberg, where the Burnett River has broken its banks and hundreds of homes and businesses will flood.
An elderly man's body has been recovered from waters at Burnett Heads, while a woman and a man are missing in floodwaters in Maryborough and Gympie.
Severe weather warnings have been issued for regions stretching from central Queensland to the NSW border.
