Forecasters predict up to five days of storms ahead for South East Queensland, thousands lose power in Brisbane
"Those three airports missed the strongest gusts, and I have no doubt there would have been some trees down in some areas."
He said there could be more storms today, and possibly again tomorrow depending on a southerly change. "If [the southerly change] comes through early in the morning, it more than likely will be north of [Brisbane], but if it comes through in the afternoon we're going to have another round of severe thunderstorms," he said.
"Those storms today will be moving a little bit quicker … so we'll see storms developing out to the west in the afternoon and they're more likely to move through [Brisbane] just because they're going to be moving a little bit quicker. "Maybe not quite like we saw [last night], but if we do get a super cell or two you can still see very intense rainfall in a very short period of time, so you could see 50mm in 20 to 30 minutes.""So there's potential we could see five days of storms," he said.
