Issued at 6:58 pm Wednesday, 22 November 2023.
Isolated severe thunderstorms developing to the north of Mt Isa.

Weather Situation: A northeasterly airstream continues to feed moisture into Queensland. This moisture combined with several troughs located over the interior will aid thunderstorm development, with isolated severe thunderstorms.

Severe thunderstorms are likely to produce damaging winds, large hailstones and heavy rainfall that may lead to flash flooding in the warning area over the next several hours.

Queensland Fire and Emergency Services advises that people should:
* Move your car under cover or away from trees.
* Secure loose outdoor items.
* Never drive, walk or ride through flood waters. If it's flooded, forget it.
* Seek shelter, preferably indoors and never under trees.
* Avoid using the telephone during a thunderstorm.
* Beware of fallen trees and powerlines.
* For emergency assistance contact the SES on 132 500.
