THE ACT State Emergency Service has received more than 190 requests for assistance following a severe thunderstorm today (January 3).
Most requests for assistance were from the Belconnen and Gungahlin regions which were the hardest hit.
ACTSES says large hailstones were reported in these areas.
Emergency crews are responding to trees down on homes and roads, fallen power lines, localised flooding, and water damage across Canberra.
For assistance in storm and flood call the ACTSES on 132500.
