Whyalla hailstorm

This is my footage taken of whats left of my front yard and street. The area where I live got it easy compared to many...such is life!

The Great Storm of 2011

Whyalla was pounded by a huge hailstorm at 8pm last night, cars wrecked all over the town, trees smashed and brought down, heavy flooding and the power went out. Just now the power was restored..22hrs later. I was lucky because my car was under cover but two of my daughters cars were extensively damaged.
My garden was smashed with the trees stripped of leaves and that nest which had a baby bird in it yesterday...empty today. (feelings of sadness sweep over me)
I took 8 min of video which I will process soon enough...


This car was at the end of my street, windows smashed, all the panels dented. Probably a write off.




Men never really grow up do they?





Our local mall, the Westlands was completely surrounded by a lake.... including inside


Some hailstones were as large as this, but most were golf ball sized.
