The BOM's Dean Narramore says as the 11am high tide passes, those near swollen waterways should expect a "surge" of up to 30cm.

He's also warned the weather system may bring potentially damaging winds with gusts of up to 90kmh from this afternoon - enough to bring down trees and powerlines, particularly given the wet ground.

Looks like Ingham and Cardwell got badly hit last night. Going to be a touch day in Townsville too. The serewarge system is at capacity and there's a high tide at midday. They had massive gusts all night apparently too.

Stay safe NQ peeps
