A down pour - a photo on Flickriver

A down pour

Yesterday, our suburb was hit by a massive wind and hail storm. Trees and powerlines down, homes without power and million dollars worth of damage.

Our street and house were spared and there are only a few holes in the perspex roof sheeting over the rear verandah.

Blue sky again today and expected temperatures on Thursday are 34 - 40 degrees. We are going from one extreme to the other.

I was so tempted to put the Olympus Tough TG5 out in the rain, but was a bit worried I may get hit by the odd large hail stone.

I shot this in vertical format which, of course, turns out to become horizontal, in-camera. I am not sure whether there is an in-camera function to make it play vertical.

I used videorotate.com/ to rotate the video - and made a USD 5.00 donation to use the the app.
