Schofields and Castle Hill copped massive rain and wind but no hail. Better safe than sorry I guess. I want to work at the BoM. You can just guess and if it happens all good if not no one cares. If I did that in my job I'd be fired or sued!! Oh well Pete |

But plenty of rain that could get in the open windows on my cars because it was 400 degrees this morning.. Sigh.. Ah bummer bout the windows. Been there done that! Surprising how it hit Quakers but not schofields. Unless my wife can't tell the difference between hail and rain hahaha |

Hail was maybe marble sized, that's about it Really quite negligable! I'm near Quakers Inn, if you're still at your place near Hambledon, it's a decent distance! |
