Thousands Experiencing Electricity in South-East Queensland and Victoria Following Powerful Weather Systems
Approximately twenty-five thousand residences in southeastern Queensland woke up without power on the start of the week after intense storm systems passed over the state, bringing wind gusts hitting 109 kilometers per hour.
Large Hailstones and Widespread Damage
Homeowners reported giant hailstones as large as 7 centimeters in particular locations. The Bureau of Meteorology verified that multiple regions across Queensland had been impacted by substantial ice precipitation.

Utility workers were working to restore power throughout the impacted areas, with nearly 70 crews activated to address the widespread outages.
Victorian Storm Challenges
Meanwhile, nearly 1,000 energy customers in Victoria also faced energy failures after Melbourne saw its wettest day in 18 months.
State Emergency Services responded to over five hundred calls for help across the area, mostly for property damage but also for fallen timber and flooding.
Most Affected Regions
- The Werribee area - experienced significant storm damage
- Hoppers Crossing - numerous rescue reports
- Wyndham area - nearly 180 calls for assistance
During the peak on yesterday, over 28,000 energy customers in Victoria were without power.
Climate Outlook
Moist weather were predicted to continue along large portions of the state's eastern regions this next several days as a low-pressure trough continued to attract humidity against the coast.
Tuesday was expected to become the wettest day, with persistent storm activity anticipated across various areas of both areas.
Medical Alert
Public health experts cautioned that there was an higher risk of epidemic thunderstorm asthma across the northern rural areas, particularly given the ongoing climate situation.
This alert comes after previous incidents where analogous circumstances led to significant health impacts in the state.
