Relief is approaching for residents of the Gladstone region, with hot and humid conditions to make way for rain as the weekend approaches.
Bureau of Meteorology Meteorologist Pieter Claassen said conditions would become more inclement thanks to a storm surge in south-east Queensland.
“It is mostly going to be shower activity around the Gladstone region, rather than thunderstorms themselves,” Mr Claassen said.
“There is a pretty good chance of seeing showers around from Thursday into Friday.
“Thursday is a 40 per cent chance and Friday is a 50 per cent chance.”
Mr Claassen said there was also a 50 per cent chance of rain on Saturday, however, conditions would ease heading into the start of next week.
