A violent thunderstorm has caused severe damage on Australia's east coast. Near Brisbane in the state of Queensland, huge hailstones with a diameter of almost 14 centimetres fell from the sky.

Cars, roofs and solar panels were damaged, and more than 95,000 households were without electricity.

The WeatherRadar shows the storm north of Brisbane.

The storm was accompanied by gusts of over 60 miles per hour and around 800,000 lightning strikes. Today, new violent thunderstorms are developing over the same region.

These conditions arrived on Monday, and resulted in the temporary evacuation of the "I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here" campsite on safety grounds.
