SES deputy zone commander for Southern Highlands SES, Superintendent Allan Budziarski said the tree fell on a blind corner at about 5.50am and blocked most of the road.

Crews worked with Goulburn Mulwaree Council to clear the wreckage before the road was re-opened to traffic.

It was one of about 10 requests for assistance that crews received as strong winds battered Goulburn and district over four days. One of the strongest gusts registered was 89km/h at Goulburn Airport on Friday.

Mr Budziarski said most of the call-outs were to toppled trees. One of these was at Ottiwell Street at about 8am Monday where a large tree fell into a private property, damaging a fence and blocking the footpath. There was no risk to human safety.

On Sunday, crews were called to the former IGA supermarket at Greenvalley Road where the wind was lifting roof iron. Personnel rendered the structure safe. They also cleared a medium-sized tree which had fallen and was partially blocking Pejar Road, off Crookwell Road.

On Saturday, volunteers were called to a Kinghorne Street home where colorbond fencing had dislodged. The day before, a large tree branch in Slocombe Street was left hanging by the strong gusts and was threatening to fall. Crews again rendered the area safe.

On Thursday, a resident reported a tree had fallen in the yard of a Gundary Street, Goulburn residence.

Mr Budziarski said the southeastern zone, which covers a vast area including Wollongong, Wollondilly, the Southern Highlands and Southern Tablelands, had registered 192 call-outs across the four days.

"Considering the winds experienced in other areas, Goulburn (and immediate area) has been extremely lucky," he said.

The SES was prepared nonetheless, with more crews on standby given snow forecasts. These did

On Monday morning the Bureau of Meteorology cancelled the severe weather warning.

Mr Budziarski said winds had subsided and although they were expected to escalate again on Wednesday in the State's southeast, were unlikely to reach Goulburn.

The wind also played havoc with temperatures, with the mercury barely reaching six degrees at Goulburn Airport on Sunday. The Bureau is predicting a top of 10 today.
