Hey Johnno how good? Been following you on the forums for years now- today was the ultimate. I was at flemington races. Couldnt believe it. Carpark flooded, lightning, hail, water flooding through inside via light fittings, blackouts inside, crowd going crazy, people stranded no trains etc. pure mayhem. tragic. Was absolutely insane. Took some great pics on my mobile will have to upload later. Couldnt believe the hail was still stacked up a foot deep in some places 3-4 hours later. Dont reckon we'll see this again for yearsjohnno wrote:WORST STORM OF MY LIFE ABOSOUTLEY TERRIFYING HERE!!!!! DAMAGING HAIL FOR 15 MINS!!!!

I have a friend in Rowville who had her windscreen smashed and both wing mirrors completely ripped off the car - and the panels look like the aftermath of one of those old British soccer riots.Mosaic wrote:yeah, there was wicked damage, just doubt that image was caused by the ice,if you can get away with it, thats ok:) My car has 30 or so pock marks on it after the business.
Hey AV well done with this. Was at the races all day and copped it. IS There any way of seeing the radar for it as it happened e.g. radar replay?Anthony Violi wrote:MY GOD AT THE RADAR...THATS JUST WRONG!!!
BIGGEST STORM EVER!!!!
yeah ditto. is there anywher to 'replay' the radar. Got home then, thought I'd recorded the races on 7HD only to realise my dvd recorder can only tape standard digital. spewing. was absolutely amazing to be there. Will never forget watching wanted win- pretty much midnight black, 3 mins befoer the mega storm arrived.Dez wrote:Anyone able to save the radar frames for this please (after it ends)? I'd love to see it all getting replayed.
hey mate i appreciate that. awesome. unbeliveable. doesnt do it justice watching that going so fast though. The black is unbelievable. Never seen it such a large area, so long lasting. When the hail hit, I thought it would last 30 seconds or so. Went for 10 mins plus, carnage, then bucketed for 2 hrs.schitzengiggles wrote:@Chillout - AV has been quiet for a while, here's what you are looking for. http://radar.strikeone.net.au/?fuseacti ... 1267862400
