The storm's impact was felt in Morayfield, where heavy rain caused the roof of a Woolworths store to leak, and a ceiling collapse occurred at the Red Dragon Martial Arts building during classes, although no serious injuries were reported.

In Mudgeeraba, rainfall was particularly intense, with 86mm recorded in just one hour and 166mm over a 24-hour period.

Queensland Reconstruction Authority chief executive Jake Ellwood outlined three essential steps for disaster preparedness: understand risks, make a plan, and pack an emergency kit.

As the storms continue, residents are advised to seek shelter, move vehicles to protected areas, and limit travel during severe weather.

Afternoon thunderstorms brought large hail, intense rainfall, and strong wind gusts, with hailstones measuring up to 7cm in diameter reported in various areas.

While the risk of severe storms has diminished, showers and thunderstorms are still expected in parts of Queensland, particularly in the central highlands and coalfields region.

Parts of Queensland, particularly the Sunshine Coast, experienced severe weather this week, including hail and heavy rainfall, with wet conditions expected to persist through Wednesday afternoon.

Warnings have been issued for central and northeastern Queensland, especially north of Springsure and south of Ayr, due to the potential for heavy winds and rain that could lead to flash flooding.

The storms, which began on Wednesday morning, affected both Queensland and New South Wales, according to Bureau of Meteorology meteorologist Miriam Bradbury.

Looking ahead, the Bureau of Meteorology predicts wetter and warmer than average conditions over the next three months, increasing the risk of heatwaves and bushfires.

Deputy Commissioner Shane Chelepy emphasized the importance of community preparedness and the state's robust disaster management system in light of the severe weather.

Johnathan Thurston, a campaign ambassador, highlighted the importance of personal preparation for extreme weather conditions.
