Minister for Police and Emergency Services Joe Szakacs told parliament on Tuesday that more than 400 incidents across the state were recorded on Sunday and Monday during a winter storm which pelted most of the Adelaide metro area with between 30 and 70mm of rain.

The Salisbury area copped the worst of the deluge, including a “mini tornado” which swept through around 5am on Monday.

Rainfall upwards of 60mm was recorded in the northern suburbs on Monday morning, damaging homes, felling trees, flooding roads, leaving thousands without power and forcing the temporary closure of Gulfview Heights Primary School.

Szakacs told parliament that approximately 65 properties had been “significantly impacted” by the storm.

He also revealed 150 SES volunteers, 300 CFS personnel and “numerous MFS strike teams” were deployed to respond to the storm.

“SES will be working with the City of Salisbury and Department for Environment and Water hydrologists to better understand the circumstances surrounding the localised flooding in that area,” Szakacs said.

“Work also continues to resupply consumables and sandbags to emergency services units and community self-help sandbag stockpiles.”

The Bureau of Meteorology currently does not have a severe weather warning in place for the Adelaide Metro area. The city has a forecast maximum of 14C today and a 10 per cent chance of rain.
