Terrifying freak storm ..........
Well in Leicestershire this afternoon we have experienced a storm like no other - one of almost biblical proportions! It started with a sky so dark, it reminded me of the total eclipse we had about 15 yrs ago when day turned to night! Then it started .........The hailstones were as big as golf balls and kept crashing against all the house windows I was quite sure they would break .... my brother was driving on the outskirts of town at the time and just had to pull in a layby, the hail dented his car, broke his front light and at least 5 birds dropped from the sky into the road killed by the hailstones I presume. A tree also fell onto a car in our town.
Our neighbours were not as lucky as us - carports shattered, and windscreens gone. Our street, on a hill, was flowing like a river with ice floating on top, my window boxes were full of water and all my bedding plants submerged and my patio was flooded.
Just as it all calmed down it started again and we had a repeat performance, I was really shaking with fright! Have never experienced anything like it before or want to again ...............like the end of the world :( thank goodness its passed and the sun is shining again and we are safe!
