Awesome thunderstorm moved through the Lismore area this afternoon. I was at Wyrallah and South Gundurimba (south of Lismore) when it got me. Wild winds, golf ball sized (most 2-3cm) hailstones and extremely heavy rain. Awesome. The sound of the hail hitting the car was amazing. Been too long.

Hi Kane Hardie, I revisited this comment – we did not have a great start to the storm season in the end! Let's hope it is a good second season!
