ONly to feel dumber for having done so.Scotty Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/51744-storms/page/2/#findComment-770321 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Spinifex Guests Posted 19/11/08 11:05 AM Share Posted 19/11/08 11:05 AM I went through Kenmore as it was happening, in the Phoon.. Wished we were in the Daewoo work car as it really needs a bath..It was seriously wild, it seemed like midnight it was so dark, but it was 4:00pm...A big arse branch went over the windscreen and roof, but did nothing. YAY!I was in a congo line of a few cars, and we could barely maintain more than 50 kph.

It`s been pouring for a while with HUGE claps of thunder.Last really big one set off the alarm on my drive to work sh!tbox daewoo. I saw a big red flash outside and woop woop woop woop..I get up to turn off, me sister comes in ` it`s flooded out here ` Teach me to pick stuff up, battery charger got soaked, trolly jack..It`s still flogging down too..Maybe we`ll be allowed to wash our cars with the hose soon :D this has gotta be filling Wivenhoe Dam up, surely to Christ..Back to bed and the 4:30am alarm...

Still be bloody hot though.Just browsing Performance Forums now and the owner of the site posted pics of the storm in QLD. You see that stuff on the news and sure its bad but when the pics show bulk damage everywhere its pretty scary stuff!

Guest Spinifex Guests Posted 19/11/08 02:32 PM Share Posted 19/11/08 02:32 PM I`ll tell you the thunder clap that set off the car alarm earlier, it was flashBANG!!! big red flash I saw through the bedroom curtain too.. Lucky it did really, we`d have water in the house if I hadn`t have got up and unblocked the grates.Last time I did was a few weeks ago in the hail, it was like fishing around in the slurry at the bottom of an esky, sh*te it was cold.No probs tonight, I was out there in underpants....My Phoon has a mist of water on it blown through the back of the carport.. Atleast it`s not hail. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/51744-storms/page/2/#findComment-771198 Share on other sites More sharing options...
