The extent of the damage left in the wake of ex-cyclone Koji is becoming clearer as floodwaters recede in Central Queensland.
The rain eased in Clermont in the state's Isaac region after the town saw its wettest day in 110 years, which sent floodwaters into dozens of homes.
The deluge damaged roads, homes and fences.

The downpour also resulted in a number of rescues over the past 24 hours.
Residents used private helicopters to go door-to-door to evacuate families from their homes in knee-deep water.
A truck driver was also rescued by a chopper from the roof of his vehicle that became submerged in floodwaters.
Swift water rescue crews also worked through the night to rescue drivers left on roofs on the Gregory Highway.

Premier David Crisafulli has been on the ground this afternoon as residents survey the damage.
"I want to thank the swift water rescue crews, I want to thank all of the emergency services," Crisafulli said.
"I also want to thank everyday people, there were neighbours who rescued each other, there were angels in the sky who came and rescued complete strangers.
"Without that there would have been tragedies."
Attention is now turning to the already flooded north-west, where significant rainfall is expected from tomorrow to Friday this week.
