Australia’s east coast is bracing for another day of heavy rain, flooding, and gale force winds as a slow moving low-pressure system continues to roll across the nation.

Parts of southern Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria are on a high alert with flood and weather warnings already in place.

The weather system has left a trail of destruction in its wake, with Weatherzone yesterday detecting 1.37 million lightning pulses across central and eastern Australia.

A long line of thunderstorms formed stretching 2500 kilometres across the Northern Territory’s Top End and southeast Queensland, according to Weatherzone.

Up to 100mm of rain has been dumped across much of central and eastern Australia since Wednesday evening.
