The jungle camp escaped the worst of the storm that hit Brisbane and the Gold Coast - killing one man - but could be hit by more torrential rain and strong winds in the next 48 hours. A spokesman for the Met Office said the camp, 70 miles south of Brisbane which has been declared a natural disaster zone, could still be hit by storms.
