(UPDATE) SYDNEY, Australia: Christmas-night thunderstorms and strong winds cut power to 110,000 homes in eastern Australia and toppled a tree that killed one woman, officials said on Tuesday.

People lost electricity as the storm wrought 'catastrophic' damage, downing power lines in Queensland's state capital Brisbane and the Gold Coast area, energy company Energex said.
