I’ve seen some wild weather in my years however today at Victor I reckon takes the cake. I worked the Pt Elliot Show and they had more than 3 inches in under 4 hours. Victor Harbor Rd was like Armageddon at 4:30 this afternoon - Flash floods across the road from creeks, small land slides, trees down and thick fog with lightning. The pics of Victor Harbor GC were astounding….

Fortunately the rough seas parted and the worst of it went North or South of us here at Kainton. If you can believe it we have only had 9mm all up so far so compared to what has happened around the state we have got away lightly.

That sounds exactly like us. We can’t even have a David Gower as house is on rain water via a Davey pump. I’m working on 1 bar of 3G as our booster won’t work with power.

Yeah not good. Entire crops shredded to pieces by the hail apparently, but they can claim on insurances. Life could be worse however. No one was hurt

Was at my brothers at Aldinga, around 3pm it was extreme to say the least.

Got home around 4:30 and you wouldn't have known it had rained.

We had 2 inch high water all around the house as the drains couldnt cope, had to shut off the spa isolator and sweep water for about 45 mins solid. Didnt get in the house thankfully.

Was a deadset mini tornado here (Morphett Vale)- rain came in from all 3 sides of the verandah.

At least we only had 3 mini power outages, nothing significant. Hear Craigburn may not have power til the 19th!!

This weather can **** right off.
