Queenslanders urged to rug up with blustery days and chilly nights forecast for this week Shannon Robinson, 16, from Mt Tamborine gets swept away on the western face of the mountain. Windy and cold weather will continue across southeast Queensland. PIC: Luke Marsden Source: The Sunday Mail (Qld) SHANNON Robinson wasn't the only one having a bad hair day yesterday as strong winds lashed the Queensland coast. At Mt Tamborine in the Gold Coast Hinterland, winds are estimated to have topped 80km/h yesterday and the weather bureau is predicting more to come. Today, temperatures will remain a cool 2C to 5C below the average, particularly inland, dropping to 3C - 5C below the average overnight, according to the Bureau of Meteorology. Forecaster Chris Joseph said cold and windy conditions were likely to continue throughout the week due to a high pressure system over South Australia and a low pressure system over the Tasman Sea. "That high is directing a cool and dry southerly flow through inland parts until mid-week when we could see coastal showers that will push a little further inland as the high pressure system moves into the Tasman Sea," he said. The low is expected to move southeast from tomorrow. Inland parts of the state will remain clear and mostly sunny this week but some coastal showers are predicted for the southeast, central Queensland and northern tropics. "There could also be some early frost over parts of the Darling Downs, Maranoa and Warrego districts," he said. Surf conditions on the southeast coast are expected to remain rough today. A strong wind warning has been issued for coastal areas stretching south from the Torres Strait to Point Danger on the Gold Coast as wind speeds are tipped to reach up to 60km per hour.
