The Queensland heatwave smashed Bureau of Meteorology November records, with temperatures hitting high 30s and into the 40s.
Cairns logged a high of 42 degrees two days in a row, and Mount Stuart scored the hottest temperature in the state; being 45.2 degrees.
The heatwave has caused trouble for firefighters around the state who are still trying to manage more than 100 bushfires, including a bushfire in North Stradbroke Island.
