The Perth Thread - Part 4

[Scotland]

10mm of rain in 12 minutes. Some big trees down around the place and a few streets turned into rivers.

Did feel like I was in Darwin for about an hour. Either side of that you wouldn't have known a storm was coming/had been through.

I heard this morning there were about a hundred thousand homes in Perth that lost power due to that thunderstorm yesterday.

Thankfully that wasn't in my area, losing power especially when it's a stinking hot day can be a nightmare with no aircon or fans.

19 hours and counting.

That storm certainly was something. Had to huddle in the stadium train station until we could make a dash for the ground. Then it cleared and the game was good.

No good if your local was Carousel...most of the centre had no power, aircon wasn't working (place was like a sauna this morning) since 4 yesterday
