Some residents in the central west are rejoicing after a weather system dumped more than 100mm in places this week.
Blackall recorded the highest rain total in the three days to 9am Friday, according to the Bureau of Meteorology, with 119mm falling in the region.
Barney's Bore on the Cooper Creek recorded 104mm, while Isisford saw 21mm.
In the south west of the state, Quilpie residents enjoyed 32mm of rain, with the Quilpie Shire Council saying NRL legend Johnathan Thurston had brought the wet stuff with him on his trip to town.
BoM forecaster Kimba Wong said the rain had been the result of a surface trough drawing a lot of moisture inland, as well as a an upper trough which had moved slowly across the central west and enhanced shower and thunderstorm activity, and rainfall amounts.
"The system has weakened and moved off to the east now, so unfortunately that's probably pretty much it for the next couple of days at least," she said.
"We are looking at the potential for rain returning to the southern inland through Sunday and Monday.
"We've got a cold front that is passing through South Australia at the moment, so with that system, once it gets its way into the south west parts of Queensland, through tomorrow and then starts to move slowly eastward, we might start to see shower and thunderstorm activity return to the south."
