Severe thunderstorms approaching the southeast and continuing throughout the evening

Severe thunderstorms are likely to produce large hailstones and damaging winds in the warning area over the next several hours. Locations which may be affected include Warwick, Toowoomba, Dalby, Emerald, Kingaroy and Stanthorpe.

Emergency services advise people to:
