Loverly Hail

Unread post by Angel »

Was in Kerikeri today (moved to okaihau) and it started to rain. Two minutes later it started to hail, and it hailed for 45 mins.. yes you read right 45 MINS! So anyway I've taken some pxts from my phone for you to have a lookie at, i'm glad i had it with me lol.. i'll post them up as soon as they decide to come thru on my email. But yea, was only pea sized hail, nothing special except for the whole 45 mins long thing lol..
