WILD WINTER WEATHER WREAKS HAVOC IN THE HUNTER

The clean-up continues today as winds of up to 90km/h whipped through Hunter region on Monday.

A series of cold fronts not only saw temperatures drop but brought with them damaging winds.

In Merewether, the roof on a family home was torn off, while trees brought down powerlines in other parts of the region.

The Bureau of Meteorology predicts winds will again be strong today, reaching gusts of 30km/h.

Farmers are also reminded to check their livestock, as the cold temperature and winds could result in the loss of lambs and sheep.
