It swept through quite quickly. It went very dark and you could hear the hail coming - it was like listening to a Jumbo Jet engine getting closer. When it hit it sounded like gunshots as the larger than golf ball hail stones were hitting cars , roof tiles and brickwork. Lasted minutes and it was amazing the damage left behind. Trees had small branches sheared off and it looked like the whole area had a wipper snipper go through it......
I really do feel sorry for the people who had major house and car damage. Our neighbour lost both his cars......so many dents and broken screens........surely a write off for both.
Here's a pic of our backyard when it started.........It got worse after this photo was taken. Stacks more golf balls and then heaps of rain.
