A WOMAN has been struck by lightning and there have been reports of a sinkhole opening up as storms hit South Australia's Eyre Peninsula and Gawler region this morning.

The woman was struck at the Defence Science and Technology Organisation about 11.30am and was treated by ambulance crews, Adelaide Now reports.

She was conscious.

Thunderstorms and torrential rain have caused flooding on Eyre Peninsula and in Gawler.

Kimba has received 40mm of rain since 9am and there are reports Kimba Area School, a road house and up to six houses in the town have been flooded.

The State Emergency Service reports local roads in the area are impassable because of flooding.

Heavy rain may also be responsible for a "sink hole" developing in the car park of the Coles Supermarket at Port Lincoln.

Gawler has been hit by more than 24mm of rain since 9am this morning.
