Storm King Dam in the southern Darling Downs recorded 44mm of rain in the hour to 1.45pm.

A trough lying through the interior of the state has triggered the slow-moving storms on Wednesday afternoon.

The warnings came after a brief reprieve from wet weather which brought a record-breaking November and fatal flooding in December.

Elsewhere in the state, flood warnings remain in force for the Balonne River (major), Weir River (moderate), Thomson and Warrego rivers (final).
