Hailstorms and hail drifts near Glen Innes 16th December 2013

1216jd38 1216jd09 1216jd16After chasing two days in the Northern Rivers, the target generally shifted inland. Unfortunately it was one of those days that the models has not picked up wind shifts from the north west whereas both models were indicating NE surface winds. THis meant I had to head from Yetman and away from the original target towards Inverell. A storm was already ongoing and headed for the region further east. Hail drifts resulted with hailstones up to the size of golf balls.1216jd31
