Guest proud2beaussie Posted March 6, 2010 Not watching it on TV Paul as they don't show it in this area but I can see on the radar a very heavy rain event over Melbourne at the moment. 256 km Yarrawonga Radar Loop Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PommyPaul 3,338 Posted March 6, 2010 looks like its calmed down abit from the radar, was that real dark red earlier when the live transmission went all crazy and cut out, the whole course was just white from the hail My Aussie pictures - https://instagram.com/paulbell5/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
olly 1,168 Posted March 6, 2010 My son called from Doncaster and said he'd just moved all the cars from the golf ball sized hail, and they battoned down the doors etc. If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.” John Quincy Adams Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest gary12 Posted March 6, 2010 we were at the festival in the City, amazing sight to see the hail then the rain turned the pathways into streams. There were about 20 of us huddled in the St Johns first aid hut. Brilliant to watch. I feel so sorry for the organisers of the festival, I imagine the rest of the days line up will be cancelled.
