Hi guys,

It has been some time since I have wished to get permission to post this online. Some of you have read the statistics of the largest ever hailstone recorded in Australian history. It may have come from the storm in Kempsey - a video showing some of the hailstones falling during this storm are shown in thi video:

Here is another video from the 2005 storm chase in western Texas:

Quite a nice buildup - almost had forgotten about it!


And then this tornado which quite a few of you have seen on the website - thought I would add it here given the western Texas theme in this post:
