Only 3inch rain in Rivonia. Yes, the drops were 3 inches apart from each other.

 

[Fraser]

Ok so something seems to have developed in the meantime, been headsdown doing the "paying suppliers" thingy and haven't had time to surf the net, but I see its getting darker behind me.

OK Maybe not...... should we brace for hail Ralf

 

[Ralf*]

Irene radar at 75km scale, showing some "red" contours possibility of hail, moving southwest towrds Olifantsfontein

 

[ChefDJ]

Hail in Randburg right now :fencelook:

 

[Ralf*]

Hail in Randburg right now :fencelook:

latest Image doesn't support the theory, the cloud is too small and its contours are not deep into the "red-scale"....but with weather anything is possible.

I suspect that the hail in Randburg is very small...Chef ? :fencelook:

 

[Baron]

Small bits of hail just missed us here in Parkhurst, moving towards Rosebank

 

[Ralf*]

Gauteng is currently on the tailend of the weather system

further north towards Warmbath/Thabzimbi it looks a lot worse

on the Irene 75KM image shows some "red" contours to the north of Culinan

[ChefDJ]

Hail only lasted about a minute, and was marble sized. Nothing too serious :thumbs:

 

[Crash_Nemesis]

Small hail here in Bedfordview about 2 hours ago. Very small... Nothing crazy.

I had to take cover under a bridge on my way home from OR Tambo (+- 15:30)..... do not like tempting mother nature :nonono:
Marble to ghoen sized.

Ters.

 

[JENICH]

Weather turning,
Any updates guys

 

[Ralf*]

It is a very thin line of thunderstorms, will be over with in a flash

On Irene 300km range shows a very active thundercell right over the Vaal Dam, and another one out rustenberg way

on Irene radar 75km shows how thin the line of weather actually is, a bit of yellow contour which isn't serious, but as mentioned above small hail....moving roughly along the Alberton-Boksburg-Springs route

Hail in Alberton guys. Storm is really bad. The hail is small at the moment but u never know.
Drive safe

 

[ChefDJ]

Also watching the skies :fencelook:

Car is standing without cover

 

[zaleonardz]

Freak storm here in boksburg

Lasted about 2 minutes with heavy rain.

Bit of hail, quite a bit, but nothing serious enough to do damage.

 

[Ralf*]

two distinct bands of thunderstorms

1st band just about touching Pretoria on the south, stretching northwards passed Brits to Warmbaths

2nd line of weather along the Vaal, developing around Dennysville, maturing towards Standerton

 

[zaleonardz]

Where is our local weather man....

Rumoured hail here in the East Rand, with the sky dark blue..

Chances are that this may not be pretty....
