Drought: Logan City’s out but Beaudesert remains

Logan City may’ve had its drought status revoked,  however Beaudesert remains drought declared.

Some late wet-season rainfall helped push Queensland’s drought declarations down marginally from 67% to 65%

But eventhough the Scenic Rim received a soaking during the month of March,  the rain wasn’t enough to help ease conditions for the Beaudesert region

Meantime, the Weather Bureau continues to monitor Australia’s drought situation,  saying South-East Queensland’s water storage levels remain low.

Australia has experienced a prolonged period of below average rainfall spanning several years. Persistent, widespread, above average rainfall is needed to further lift areas out of deficiency
