THERE ARE LITERALLY GOLF-BALL SIZED HAILSTONES HITTING MY HOUSE RIGHT NOW! SERIOUSLY! HUNDREDS OF THEM!


Have a very scared cat on my lap, am staying away from windows, and really wishing I'd put my car in the garage.

Ditto on every point there. And no longer shall I be able to say, "Oh, we never get hail in Melbourne like I used to see in Sydney." This was definitely a Sydney-style hail storm... first one I've seen in the six years I've lived here.

You get these normally in Sydney?! Wow.

Well, we didn't get hail storms all the time but when we did they'd usually look like this. As in, whenever the weather report mentioned hail, people would run out to put their cars away or drape blankets and doonas over them. I don't even want to think about my car right now... which is parked outside my house because I was going to go out again later this afternoon. Sigh.
