The South Burnett has been smashed by severe storms with hail stones the size of tennis balls plummeting from the skies.

Hail as large as 6-7cm in diameter was reported after thunderstorms hit several areas of the South Burnett, including Kumbia, Blackbutt, Nanango, Coolabunia and Kingaroy.

Kumbia State School received significant damage to a number of their classrooms with the school requesting parents pick up their children at the earliest and safest convenience.

Residents reported flooding and trees down over Kingaroy-Cooyar Rd and on parts of the D'Aguilar Hwy between Nanango and Kingaroy.
