Queensland has once again been lashed by powerful storms, with regions south of Brisbane experiencing winds exceeding 100 km/h.

The town of Warwick found itself in the path of this intense weather, suffering significant damage. Roofs were torn from homes, trees and power lines were downed, and the local turf club sustained considerable destruction.

As daylight broke, the aftermath was starkly visible on Victoria Street, where metal roofing debris scattered across front yards. A garage door was also violently wrenched off by the fierce winds.

Throughout the community, trees fell into backyards and even onto homes. Fortunately, despite the chaos that struck around 8:30 pm (AEST), there have been no reports of injuries from the storm.

The Warwick Turf Club, a local staple, had to close temporarily due to storm damage. The machinery shed was obliterated in moments, and a section of the clubhouse roof was ripped away by the gusts.

The machinery shed was torn to pieces and collapsed within minutes, while part of the clubhouse roof also went flying due to the high winds.

“It’s a bit devastating,” track manager Maurice Monckton said.

“At the end of the day, at least the track’s still good.”

The local golf club is also expected to be closed for several days, losing around $10,000 in trade as a result.

Despite the local school being in what locals describe as “a mess”, it remained open today and hasn’t suffered significant damage.

The clean-up effort continues around the town, with a number of power poles still needing to be repaired after they were felled in the storm, with locals still expecting more spring and early summer storms to come their way.
