 Re: Snow reports 4th and 5th July 2008 Tokoroa (335m) - It hailed then snowed as the wind went from NW to south quite quickly, hailed first then the wind died as it started to snow gently and faintly, now stopped.

| Re: Snow reports 4th and 5th July 2008 It's been snowing off and on all day here in Taihape. 6cm snow on the ground, current temp 1.4 deg, no wind and it's dumping with snow again. Will be interesting to see what the morning brings. Gary |

| Re: Snow reports 4th and 5th July 2008 It was good to see your photos Gary. And I see the mesomap weather condition icon shows snow for you right now too. I did a hail/snow melt with a hair dryer and measured the melt and it then said snowing... LOL

| Re: Snow reports 4th and 5th July 2008 Well there was extremely heavy hail in St Heliers/Kohimarama in Auckland at about 10pm tonight... I've lived in the same area all my life (only 22 though  ) and I've never seen hail that bad - not so much the size of the pieces but the sheer volume. It was backed up in our driveway and on any south-facing windows or anything that made it stop! Interesting thing was that it appeared to be sticking around, rather than melting straight away which is what usually happens. I'd just driven home -- 4 degrees outside -- crazy for Akl!Edit 11:19 -- ugh, in bed and more hail on my windows. Our house and particularly my level of it is very exposed and bears the brunt of any storm - case in point my concertina windows that I thought were latched properly bursting open tonight and the whole house shaking Last edited by kohigal; 05-Jul-2008 at 23:20. |

| Re: Snow reports 4th and 5th July 2008 My fascination with hail soon passed when I went to a supermarket. I had to hang onto my car to walk so I wouldn't slip! |
