Thought I might post up a few photos of the the infamous march 2010 storm in Melbourne. 2010 Victorian storms - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Saw this crazy supercell aproaching melbourne and drove up to a local look out which I new was close to a little tunnel I could park my car under to protect it from the hail. I coped 1 inch hail, back home a couple of km away my friend had a window cracked, and near my parents place they had 11cm (4 inch+) the largest ever recorded in australian history.

First shot at the carpark with the lookout in the way of most of the action.


after a few minutes walk to the viewing point I got this shot showing the beaver tail (infeed band) that was racing from left to right. Wish I had taken a video although time was short.


Decided to head back after a few minutes, just in time, as I got to the car the sky went "expletive" black!

Never knew there was such a thing as a lightning trigger. I'll have to get one.

Hail Storm

Walking up a mountain in Glencoe, me and my friend got caught in a hail storm. The wind was so strong the hail was blowing horizontally at times and it felt like buckshot hitting us. The first photo is the storm moving in and the second is taken in the middle of the storm.

Wow, I forgot about this thread! I got burned on the Kickstarter I mentioned earlier in this thread (years ago). I have a Pluto Trigger now. Pretty nice and has a phone app to control and monitor it.
