Clean-up work will begin again on Tuesday after a system packing gusts of up to 80km/h struck south-east Queensland, ripping the roof of one house and damaging dozens of others.

Dramatic pictures emerged of storm damage south of Brisbane after a brief but powerful storm ripped through the area on Monday evening.

The Logan suburb of Rochedale South was hard hit, with the roof of one home peeled off and left hanging precariously in a tree.

A woman was cut from her vehicle in Varsity Lakes after sliding off the Pacific Motorway as the storm system blew through the Gold Coast about 6pm.
