In 2002 a possible tornado blew over 1000 trees in the Derwent Valley, Tas and caused $20,000 damage to the New Norfolk oval grandstand

In 1957, a tornadic squall at Dundas, NSW, lifted a car from a parking lot into a creek and damaged roofs. At Castle Hill a storm carried a roof about 70 metres, damaging a house and causing electrical failures. Tornadic squalls in other areas disrupted services including radio and power supply.
