Storms In South-East Queensland
SES crews are completing repair work after yesterday’s storms in south-east Queensland.
More than 60 homes were damaged at Logan.
SES group leader in Beenleigh Brett McDonaugh says it was the region’s worst storm in recent months, and more could be on the way.
“It obviously signals the start of the storm season for south-east Queensland … and hopefully, with any luck, this afternoon’s storm won’t bring any further damage to it,” he said.
Energex says about 28,000 customers lost power during yesterday’s storm.
About 5,500 homes and businesses on the Sunshine Coast between Maroochydore, Nambour and Chevallum were blacked out.
Power was restored to most of them by early this morning.
