Down to ~17,000 customers off supply in south-east Queensland (not forgetting northern NSW)

It’s Friday morning 14th March 2025 and a quick review at the Energex Outage finder shows that we’re down to ‘only’ ~17,000 customers off supply:

… most of these are down on the Gold Coast, and we see from the map these are inland, where I presume there’s more vegetation and including locations where road access might have been damaged via TC Alfred (not TC Albert, sorry):

I have not looked in northern NSW, but readers should also not forget that there would also be customers still off supply there.
