Brisbane, Australia, was slammed on Thursday by a massive storm that brought high winds, golf-ball sized hail and left more than 75,000 residents without power.


"This has been a ferocious storm, arguably the worst since 1985 for this city," Queensland Premier Campbell Newman said, noting that there were no reports of deaths or any serious injuries.



The Australian army was reportedly called in to help clean up the damage, caused by high winds, which included downed power lines and trees across Brisbane, city police said.
