Nearly twenty-five thousand households in south-east Queensland were left experiencing outages on the start of the week after intense storm systems passed over the area, bringing powerful gusts reaching 109 kilometers per hour.

Emergency crews were attempting to repair electricity service throughout the affected regions, with nearly 70 crews deployed to address the widespread outages.
Southern State's Weather Woes
Meanwhile, around one thousand households in the southern state also faced power outages after the metropolitan area recorded its most precipitation in 18 months.
Rescue organizations received 598 emergency reports across the area, primarily for property damage but also for collapsed vegetation and water accumulation.
Hardest Hit Regions
- Werribee - experienced considerable destruction
- Hoppers Crossing suburb - numerous assistance requests
- Wyndham - over 175 help reports
During the peak on Sunday, over 28,000 power users in Victoria were without power.
Climate Outlook
Humid circumstances were expected to linger along much of eastern Queensland this week as a weather pattern continued to attract humidity against the coastal areas.
Tuesday was forecast to be the heaviest precipitation period, with continued storm activity predicted across various areas of both areas.
Medical Alert
Health officials cautioned that there was an increased chance of epidemic thunderstorm asthma across the state's northern country region, particularly given the existing atmospheric conditions.
This warning comes after past events where similar conditions led to significant health impacts in the region.
