Queensland will brace for more wild weather with ex-Tropical Cyclone Owen set to return for another round of destruction.
Owen is currently a tropical low, but it is expected to reform in the Gulf Carpentaria over the next 48 hours before swinging back east towards Townsville, then possibly tracking down the coast through the weekend.
The Bureau of Meteorology has given it a 20-50 percent chance of redeveloping into a category one cyclone by Wednesday evening.
