Queensland storms tear off roofs and hinder damage-assessment crews

10 News' report shows Logan bearing much of the power disruption, with fallen trees and peak-hour traffic complicating the response.

Roofs Torn From Homes As Wild Storms Wreak Havoc In South-East Queensland | 10’s Late News

Getting through the streets was itself a problem for crews assessing Logan's storm damage. Fallen trees, damaged infrastructure and peak-hour traffic slowed their progress, Mayor John Raven told 10 News.

The late bulletin shows roofs torn from homes, snapped utility poles and trees blocking roads in Brisbane's southern suburbs. Reporting from Brisbane, Kristina Puljak said about 80,000 people were without power, most of them in Logan, the area between Brisbane and the Gold Coast.

The damage extended beyond those neighbourhoods. Strong winds grounded flights, while properties north of the Sunshine Coast were blanketed in hail so thick it resembled snow. Across the border, the report follows the storms through Wauchope and Yamba in New South Wales.

The short bulletin has drawn an audience far beyond the usual first-day reach of 10 News' Shorts. Its closing images show a different consequence of the weather: thick black smoke rising above trees around Booti Booti and Forster, where the report says dry lightning sparked a bushfire.
