Heavy rain is expected to drench parts of Queensland today, but residents are warned a cold snap is on the way. A trough that was supposed to deliver showers and thunderstorms yesterday arrived 24 hours late and is forecast to dump up to 30 millimetres of rain along the coast. A pulse of easterly swell has brought days of large waves to the south-east. Surfers have been enjoying the conditions, and the swell has helped to replenish the sand banks and beaches carved away by Tropical Cyclone Alfred.

From his shop on the Gold Coast Highway, Jess Firkin watches construction of a billion-dollar public transport infrastructure project. It is a 6.7 kilometre stretch of light rail that will connect about 1 million passengers a month from the shopping precinct of Broadbeach to the stunning beaches of Burleigh Heads. But it comes with road closures, a loss of parking spaces and the loud clamour of construction — something Mr Firkin says has cost his Mermaid Beach business.

On acknowledgement, Gold Coast mayor said "it is not efficient. You've got all the staff there, everyone is per hourly rate, I don't waste a minute on other things. We do our prayer, we do our national anthem and we get on with our business." https://t.co/GpDi0tYLln
Odd to see at the Gold Coast #ClimateStrike (yes there was one), 3 of the 5 people who gave speeches were baby boomers. All of the young people I interviewed were eloquent, passionate, smart. Maybe give them the mic? @abcbrisbane #auspol https://t.co/7G44pSMDEn
