This is from a news article A THUNDERSTORM caused serious damage in parts of western and northern Sydney yesterday, with homes in some areas battered by hailstones the size of cricket balls and thousands left without power. Thirty women were treated for minor injuries and one was taken to hospital with chest pains when hailstones up to seven centimetres in diameter and damaging winds tore through an outdoor tea party at Kemps Creek on Sydney's western outskirts about 4.30pm. "It looked like the end of the world. I've never seen anything like it," one woman told Channel Seven. Another said the winds lifted slabs of concrete. Here is a picture and the weather experts are saying that we are in for a storm season,lots of damage to roofs and cars,some cars looking like someone has bashed them with a baseball bat. Windows smashed everywhere. So I hope everyone stays safe and sound. |
