Массовые разрушения и перебои с электроснабжением в Австралии после сильных штормов

Reviews of weather events, natural disasters, astronomical phenomena and wildlife around the world A series of terrifying cyclones with thunderstorms, lightning, heavy rain, hurricane-force winds, and large hail swept across Australia. It all began in Darwin, where the storm was accompanied by squalls gusting up to 155 km/h (95 mph) and hail up to 10 cm in diameter. Hail damaged cars, building roofs, and solar panels, while strong winds toppled trees and power lines. Ceilings and walls collapsed at Darwin Hospital due to the storm. The building was so severely damaged that management advised it would need to be completely rebuilt. Severe thunderstorms then swept through northeastern Queensland, Australia. Large hail fell in Brisbane and the Gold Coast, with hail reaching 9 cm in size in places. Wind gusts reached 107 km/h (67 mph), and more than half a million lightning strikes were recorded across the region. Energex reported that more than 138,000 households were left without power. More than 300 downed power lines were found across the region. Residents of the region actively shared photos of huge hailstones. One Reddit user noted that they had never seen anything like it there, sharing a photo of a hailstone approximately 10 cm in diameter and weighing almost 190 grams. Some said they had never seen such severe weather. Power outages were also reported in New South Wales: in western Sydney, as well as on the south coast, and in the central and northwestern regions of the state. Hundreds of trees were downed, some of which downed power lines. According to emergency services, clearing the affected areas could take several weeks. Meteorologists warned that storms will continue across the country. Heavy rain, hail, and strong winds are expected, with localized flooding possible. The Bureau of Meteorology also issued a heatwave warning for northern Queensland, where temperatures could exceed 40°C.
