A Bureau of Meteorology radar image shows Cyclone Oma on Wednesday night on a path for southeast Queensland.

Cyclone Oma may still cause havoc for Queenslanders, with no one sure of where it will strike.

Cities and towns from the Gold Coast to Bundaberg could be impacted, with the possibility Oma could linger off the Sunshine Coast for days.

Weather prediction models currently suggest Oma will be 300km off the Sunshine Coast on Saturday, but for how long, and where it goes next is anyone’s guess.

Authorities are warning people not to panic but to prepare themselves and their property for a weekend of wild weather.
