A brief storm in Rockingham has left residents and business owners with plenty to clean up.

A 10 minute storm on Sunday morning has left homes without roofs and property damaged throughout Rockingham.

The Department of Fire and Emergency services received around 20 calls for help after the storm hit around 10:40 yesterday morning.

Winds of up to 130km/h thrashed the city with buildings on Walker Avenue and Harrison Street bearing the brunt of the storm.

Images have emerged online of damaged cars and homes with trees falling across the city and rain dumped on roads creating dangerous driving conditions. 

Power was lost to around 150 homes in Baldivis. 

A fish and chip shop had their roof torn off as did residents at an apartment building.
