so i guess most of the easter seaboard got some funky weather yesterday!
didnt get any hail in inner-city brisbane, i was out @ st johns wood driving around in a friends car (cos mine still isnt working!) when i noticed
that the clouds were green and there was alot of big beautiful lightning!
all the good weather seems to by-pass the city its been ages since ive
seen a really good storm! |

Bad luck Wrecker. That's no good.
I'd just moved to Berowra last week and we got it bad too. I still had unpacked boxes in the garage, and both cars were out in the hail.
I've never seen it hail so much for so long. The hail over us lasted 60 mins at least (kept on swinging back around].
The garage flooded, but no dents on the cars. The kids enjoyed it though, making ice balls out of the hail.
The pool is also a silted mess so a bit of tidying up to do.
At least yesterday we managed to clean up the garage and unpack all of those things that we hadn't got around to. Now - both cars fit in the
garage!
I hope everyone else faired ok.
Squiz.......

We got two days of hail in the blue mountains, lucky though, they were about the size of marbles. Best of luck to all those affected, we had a bad
storm a couple of month's ago and i know the pain.

Hi
Sorry to here about all the damage.
We went camping at a friends property at Peelwood (Nth of Goulbourn) for the weekend, when we were on the M5 we could see the weather building up over
near Penrith and we were hoping we would miss it, I don’t know how a Prado would hold up to hail, not well I imagine. A friend of mine worked at
Capital Motors in Auburn (a huge Datsun dealer) in 1976 when there were really bad storms down Parramatta Road (the car yard strip in Sydney) she had
her 71 Super parked there and only had damage to her chrome strips, needless to say the Datsuns were totalled. That’s why a lot of cars from that
era had vinyl roofs.

We copped marble sized hail at my place on Sunday. My Kombi was safely tucked away under the house 
Sorry to hear about the people who were'nt so lucky. Hopefully you can bring you VW's back better than what they were before the storm.

I was at Indy on the weekend and it hailed there at the track... Kinda fun in a way. But I thought oh shit there's going to be some damage,
somewhere. Yep, next day, plenty of dinted cars on the Gold Coast. Sorry to hear it included some of you Dubbers... My best mate's Rodeo suffered
damage just up the road from me in Berowra; luckily for me my dubs and Holdens were under cover
