I remember driving through St Ives, Sydney the day after a hail storm 3 decades ago. You could see which direction the storm came from as the cars looked like someone had gone over them with a sledgehammer, but only facing one direction & the top faces.

I sincerely hope that they do put the fires out in NSW/QLD

I can relate to large hailstones

Many years ago, (before 1990), I was travelling home, in my ute, somewhere between Leonora and Menzies, in Western Australia

When the hailstones started, I pulled over to the hard shoulder of the road

Man in a hired car, overtook me and kept going

A couple of kilometres down the road, he had stopped, his front windscreen was so damaged, he was removing it

They were big hailstones, and it was not a wet day, just an isolated shower
