Hi Gill,

Just checked the radar after I read your message, lots going on around Maroochy & Brissie. Nothing up here in Gympie apart from noise and wind, we need the rain so much...keep up that dancing Gill.

It was all over in minutes here in Brissie's north west. Plenty of wind but not much of the wet stuff.

Hopefully with a week of rain forecast, we'll get some decent falls.

We had the worst storm ever here! we are always alerted that hail and wind are coming and we never get it! In 9 yrs we have never had hail.

Today the hail was massive, it came in waves with the horrid wind, so strong we lost branches, our carport guttering was filled with leaves and sagging. We almost lost a fence. We also lost power for most of the afternoon and evening.

and in the midst of that, we got a text message to let us know the nursing home had no power but our loved ones are all safe and well and had baked beans and bread, with cordial, for tea. The emergency power was supplying some lighting but no phones and no cooking or air con.
