This afternoon we had a ripper hail storm. The storm came generally from the south west but when it hit the hail appeared to be coming from every direction. Luckily our only casualty was the peg basket which was hanging from the clothes line. The largest hail was about 30mm in diameter. The noise on our tin roof was unbelievable.
bugger me!
The size of the hail is impressive but I’m actually more impressed by the volume of it sitting in your backyard – that is incredible, no wonder it made a hell of a noise!
Andrew forgot to say that the hail I picked up from outside was a good thirty minutes after the storm was over……. I was feeding Ben his dinner when it all happened!
I bet you are glad you weren’t on your motorbike at the time – oouch!
