October 12th 2007 09:45
South East Queensland and the NSW North Coast have been lashed by short but intense thunderstorms, accompanied by hail, for four evenings in a row.
The Sunshine Coast, Brisbane and the Gold Coast have all been affected. Hardest hit was Lismore, on the far north coast of NSW. The city was pelted with huge hailstones, causing widespread damage and a few minor injuries. A State of Emergency has been declared to help the City of Lismore recover.
The Bureau of Meteorology said the immediate threat of severe thunderstorms has passed but there is a strong wind warning from Sandy Cape to Coolangatta and the situation will continue to be monitored.
