The Gold Coast is facing the threat of more storms on Monday after a wild night across parts of the city.
Severe storms swept through the region on Sunday night, bringing strong winds, heavy rain and some hail to some areas.
Parts of the Hinterland copped the brunt of the action, with winds in excess of 80km/h recorded.
The storms also saw a spectacular lightning show across the southeast.
At one stage, the storms left almost 3,000 homes and businesses without power on Sunday night.
However, power had been restored to all affected customers on the Gold Coast overnight.
Lightning is believed to have struck a power pole at Mount Nathan, while a lightning strike is believed to be responsible for starting a blaze in Springbrook.
The fire is in an inaccessible area and is not posing any threat, with crews expected to assess the blaze on Monday.
The Bureau says that Monday could be even dicier across the Gold Coast.
More storms are forecast, which could be severe, with BOM warning of the possibility of destructive winds, large hail and heavy rain, which could lead to flash flooding.
