    We had a fairly major hail storm here yesterday.
    As you can see the hail was very large and caused plenty of destruction

    I see you've had a spot of rain down your way too Grant! We've had a bit of the white stuff up here too. I saw that a lady up a little further from me had to get stitches in her head from a direct hit on the melon.

    Yeah mate, my neighbor ended up with 4 stitches in the head yesterday too.
    I was looking at the weather radar earlier today and it was looking like South East Queensland was going to cop it.
    Hope all is OK there.
