RESIDENTS of Perth's west have escaped injury after gale force winds ripped off roofs and downed power lines during stormy weather that hit the city.

Several areas of the city were evacuated, but all residents were accounted for and no one was injured.

West Coast Highway was closed for some time as roofing debris and power lines were cleared from the roads.

State Emergency Service volunteers remain on duty in the city after 18 calls for help in the metropolitan area following the wild weather overnight, FESA said.

Other calls involved roof damage and collapsed ceilings from water laden roof insulation, it said.

The wet and windy weather was expected to clear later today.
