Oh ok that was the severe thunderstorm day, that brought an incrediable thunderstorm here and hail up to golf ball size around the Waipara area.NZstorm wrote:Great find Jasestorm. Its the Waikouaiti tornado which occurred January 3rd last year. (north of Dunedin).
If it was north Otago this would have occured earlier in the day, might have to flick back to that thread to have a look did someone post about it did they?.
