Some 316,540 people were without power in Queensland's southeast where the Gold Coast city was the worst-hit area with more than 112,000 without power due to the storm system, energy distributor Energex said in a statement.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said on Sunday that the “situation in Queensland and northern New South Wales remains very serious due to flash-flooding and heavy winds”.
The nation's Bureau of Meteorology said heavy rainfall that could spark flash flooding was developing on Sunday and could impact Brisbane as well as Queensland regional centres of Ipswich, Sunshine Coast and Gympie, it said.
“It is now just a weak low as it continues moving further inland through southeast Queensland bringing lots of rain,“ bureau meteorologist Dean Narramore said, referring to the ex-cyclone.
On Saturday, one man died in floodwater in northern New South Wales, while two Australian defence force vehicles en route to help residents in the city of Lismore were involved in a road collision that injured several officers, officials said.
