Seven Queenslanders were killed in the weather event.

The death toll includes a woman who was hit by falling tree branch on the Gold Coast, a nine-year-old girl who went missing in a Logan stormwater drain, two women who drowned in Gympie, as well as three men who died when their boat capsized in Moreton Bay.

Gold Coast residents have called it the worst storm in half a century.

City of Gold Coast Mayor Tom Tate compared the financial toll to Tropical Cyclone Oswald in 2013, which caused an estimated $3.7 billion in damage across the east coast and claimed six lives.

How bad was the damage?
Minister for Fire and Disaster Recovery Nikki Boyd said more than 3,200 structures — including public infrastructure like roads and bridges — had been damaged by the recent storms in south east Queensland.

Nearly 1,000 homes and businesses across the Gold Coast, Logan and Scenic Rim were impacted, including 145 severely damaged houses and 10 destroyed houses.
