Brisbane rain radar — classic loop
Follow recent rain around Brisbane, with a classic radar loop centred on the city. Switch between 64, 128, 256 and 512 km view widths to compare nearby showers with the wider southeast Queensland picture.
Distance rings are measured from your selected location. Transparent areas may be dry or outside coverage. Colours are not a calibrated rainfall measurement.
Using the Brisbane radar view
The 128 km view brings Brisbane and nearby parts of Moreton Bay, Logan and Ipswich into context. Choose a wider view to see more of the coast and inland areas; the labelled rings show distance from Brisbane city, not from Mt Stapylton or Marburg radar stations.
Compare successive frames to see how echoes have moved around the city and bay. Playback shows what has already happened; it does not predict where the next shower will go.
Looking for the old BOM radar?
Atmosphr offers a classic-style alternative with automatic playback and simple controls. It is independent of the Bureau of Meteorology. The image is a historical composite supplied through RainViewer, not a direct station-specific BOM product.
