Homenews

This storm has wreaked havoc on Sydney.

Storm Desmond may have taken a heavy toll on Ireland recently, but this weather over in Australia looks like it's in a completely different league. Mammoth winds of over 200 km/h have been battering Sydney, with ABC News Australia reporting two massive thunderstorms inside an hour. Kurnell, situated in the southern parts of Sydney, has particularly been hit badly. https://youtu.be/0ojQ_Fpn22I A lot of people in Australia have been taking to social media to illustrate just how bad the weather is, with hailstones the size of golf balls reportedly falling. https://youtu.be/tMuO8dj0Wnw Clip via euronews (in English) No doubt though, Kurnell is really feeling the force of the tornado. https://youtu.be/vzmEgsVN750 Clip via Weather News To all the Irish over in Sydney at the moment, stay safe lads.
