An Australian state has warned of both storms and a heatwave.

Queenslanders in Australia are preparing for a stretch of intense weather conditions that have been forecasted for the upcoming days. The Bureau of Meteorology has issued a double warning, alerting citizens of both severe storms and a scorching heatwave that will be impacting various areas in the state. The thunderstorms are expected to hit the southern inland regions of Queensland, particularly in the Southern Downs and Granite Belt areas for most of today. As the storm intensifies, heavy rainfall is expected within the next few hours.

The north-west and central west regions of Queensland are also in the forecast for thunderstorms, with conditions expected to worsen as they move towards the south-east coast. Meanwhile, large parts of Queensland are currently experiencing heatwave conditions, with temperatures reaching dangerously high levels. The bureau has issued an emergency warning, cautioning citizens of the Cape Peninsula area about the potential health risks associated with the extreme temperatures.

The heatwave conditions are expected to impact several areas in Queensland, including the far north, northern, north-west, central, and central-western regions. Maximum temperatures are predicted to reach the high 30s to low 40s, with minimum temperatures staying in the mid to high 20s. The Bureau of Meteorology has stated that severe heatwave conditions are building up in the north, and there is a possibility of isolated pockets of extreme heatwave conditions forming in the next few days. However, as the heat moves towards the north, the severe conditions are expected to ease up in central districts.

Apart from Queensland, there is also a heatwave warning in place for the Kimberley and Pilbara regions, as well as the northern districts in Western Australia until Wednesday. The bureau has advised citizens in these areas to take necessary precautions to stay safe during this extreme weather period. In addition, the bureau has also urged the public to keep an eye on the news for any updates and to be prepared for any changes in the weather conditions. As always, it is essential to stay hydrated and avoid prolonged exposure to the scorching heat.
