Residents and businesses are continuing to count the cost of the severe storm that hit Harden Murrumburrah on Monday morning.

A number of locals have had their houses damaged or destroyed after heavy hail, rain and wind hit the region in the early hours of Monday morning.

The local SES has reported it is receiving support from neighbouring units as well as those from Sutton, Yass, Moss Vale, Wingecarribee and Wollongong.

Following the storm the streets of Harden and Murrumburrah looked as though it was covered in snow, instead piled high with hail stones, some roads were cut off due to flooding and locals were urged to stay away from the raging waterways across the region, there were also reports of injured wildlife and debris.
