Widespread storms are forecast for much of central and eastern Australia after south-east Queenslanders were treated to a spectacular lightning display last night.

The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) is warning severe storms are likely in south-east Queensland and north-east New South Wales, and possible for Western Australia's interior, south-west parts of the Northern Territory and large parts of South Australia.

The BOM warned there could be a risk of flash flooding on outback highways in inland parts of the country, but heavy rain was more likely on the east coast.

Last night a storm ended days of heat in south-east Queensland, with BOM senior meteorologist Pieter Claassen saying the chances of more severe weather would last until later this week.

Lighting up the skies​

More than 120,000 lightning strikes were recorded during Sunday's storms, which cut power to nearly 20,000 homes.

A spokesperson for Energex said most have had power restored.

Mr Claassen said the storm brought a good soaking to most of the south-east.

"We saw scattered to widespread falls in that 20-to-60-millimetre range across the area's impacted and we saw some gusty winds come through with those storms as well."

The Ipswich region received the heaviest downpours with Rosewood recording 78mm of rain in just 30 minutes and 81mm overall.
