Weather & Hail Warnings

[JENICH]

My wife has my car today in Sandton and its parked outside

Just called panel shop, told them to park my car inside again as i will not collect today (Was scheduled to collect at 3pm.)

Good call. Better safe than sorry.

I've also just pulled my car "undercover". Hopefully she will be ok. :tiptoe:

You must be very excited to get her back.

Some good thermals building far South by the looks of it. :fencelook:

"Good" thermals? Does that mean we should be worried?

Strong thermal activity is just what a rainstorm needs to produce hail. If you know how to read cloud formations you can see the tell tail signs.

Thanks. I am trying to learn, hence the question.

I park outside at work underneath shade netting, but if the hail comes at an angle I'll still get hit on some areas. So I'm trying to learn how to read the signs, so I can move my car to the other parking spaces about 250m away from the office, under better cover.
