Yes, I live there.

No I didn't get any good pics of the storm. To be honest it is all a little scary. Most of the damage was done on the other side of town,

We didn't even know it was like it is until this morning when we hop in the car to do the work/school run. What normally is a 20 min to 1/2 hour trip, took over 45 minutes. One of the major shopping centres is closed, and one of the universities because of storm damage.



Yeah, I don't think I would be so excited to be taking pics because these are peoples houses we are talking about.


Most of the damage happened on the other side of town to where I am.



Where did you find the footage?

I saw the footage on the news.

what part of town do you live in?

I'll ask my mum she lives in weston creek (where i grew up) if she got any pics.

Im not saying it's cool that people's house's got damaged (gee my house burnt down in the 2003 bushfires i know what those people are going through!)

i just really like storms and thought some people might have got some cool pics. esp pics of all the hail, it looked so thick i thought it was snow at first.

The hail in the City was insane though. I think ANU was closed for a week because the buildings were damaged as well.
LOL i was like wow thats an old thread what could possibly be written in it?

Those photo's are so cool! thanks for sharing them.

Your street looks so familiar made me a little homesick. which is really hard to do cause i don't often get homesick for Canberra. LOL
