Brisbane is expecting rain and possible thunderstorms following a period of warm weather. The Bureau of Meteorology forecasts up to 15 millimeters of rainfall on Tuesday as a trough moves through southeast Queensland. Senior meteorologist Liam Smart notes that the exact amount could vary significantly based on where storms occur, with temperatures expected to drop to around 21 degrees Celsius by late Wednesday, about seven degrees below average for this time of year.

Story summary
Rain and an outside chance of thunderstorms are expected to hit Brisbane, following a period of warmer weather. The Bureau of Meteorology predicts that up to 15 millimetres could fall on Tuesday as a trough moves into south-east Queensland, with more wet weather likely later in the week. Senior meteorologist Liam Smart noted it's challenging to forecast exact outcomes due to the "messy set-up" over the next few days. Temperatures are expected to cool substantially by late Wednesday, dropping to around 21 degrees, about seven degrees below average for this time of year. The mercury reached nearly 30 degrees on Saturday and Sunday before the change in weather patterns.
