The storm caused widespread power outages across the northern part of the shire, as well as some minor damage to houses.

Batemans Bay SES attended addresses in Surfside, North Batemans Bay, Batemans Bay, Catalina, and Rosedale to fix damaged roofs.

They also provided sand bags to a property in Surfside to help redirect water away from the garage.

A spokesman said despite the severity of the storm, none of the repair jobs were overly serious.

“The majority of them were gutters not being able to take the amount of water, because we had so much rain fall in a short period of time,” he said.

Moruya SES was also busy, with a handful of jobs around the area.

These included roof jobs and tree jobs, as well as responses to some flash flooding.

The SES would like to remind people that there may still be some flash flooding, and you should never drive or walk through floodwaters.
