Storms on Friday intercepted may have been high based

· by Jimmy Deguara

Michael,

The two storms on Friday intercepted may have been relatively high based though the one through Kew certainly packed a punch downing some branches and also powerlines on the Pacific Highway north of Kew. I was certainly watching and driving cautiously as I progressed north. Some hailstones hit the car of the order of 5mm in diameter haha.

I have awoken this morning to cloudy conditions with a stratocumulus layer from the S. A bit cooler too.
