That storm was cRaZy (pics) in Adventures in paradise

I woke up today thinking that someone was throwing rocks at the house. I just kept hearing all this banging coming from upstairs, so i thought my housemates were having some crazy-ass sex or something. Then the banging was coming from the kitchen and outside my bedroom window. It wasn’t long until I realized it was hailing!

Ohh Brisbane storms, how I love you. I am so used to them around this time of year, but the one today has to be one of the wildest I have seen in some time.

Here is a link to a video I posted on Facebook today, if you haven’t seen it already. It stupidly uploaded sideways, but hey, considering I pretty much had my arm stuck out the door at the time so I didn’t get too hit by hail, I’m pretty glad people are still appreciating what I did manage to film.

I took another video in the backyard as well.

Now some piccies, some I took, others shared, if you can’t be bothered looking at the vids.

I found this piece of hail on the back deck. I gave it to Jeff to hold because he has smaller hands than me haha.

This is the showgrounds!

The Valley

South Bank

Just before it hit

The only time I ever see it ‘snow’ in Brisbane.

These are the stairs I walk up and down most days. On days like this they become a complete waterfall :)

Our Premier has called in the army to help clean up.
