POWERFUL winds and heavy rain left another trail of destruction across the already battered Springfield Lakes this week.
The system, which dumped about 75mm of rain within half an hour on Tuesday evening, brought down dozens of trees and further damaged homes that are still awaiting repairs from the massive hail storms that battered the suburb last October.
An SES spokeswoman confirmed more than fifty calls for assistance were made amid the wild weather – most of them from Springfield Lakes.
She said crews were called to “re-tarp” damaged roofs and assist with fallen trees. Paul MacDonald’s property following this week’s severe storms. Pic: Paul MacDonald
