<P><FONT SIZE=2>Yes it was pretty full on, where I live we copped a bit of it, but no where<BR>
near as much as the CBD and eastern suburbs.<BR>
<BR>
1. Crown Casino was evacuated due to flooding.<BR>
2. Etihad stadium had a roof collapse due to rain and hail and flooded one<BR>
of the bars inside.<BR>
3. Domain tunnel had a sludge of ice running through it and some cars got<BR>
stuck in there.<BR>
4. The inner CBD, trams came to a halt, cars got flooded, trains were off<BR>
the air.<BR>
<BR>
I had a friend whos car got damaged with the hail and house windows smashed<BR>
due to the force of them.<BR>
<BR>
All in all a very destructive storm, I'm just surprised no more data centres<BR>
got affected by it.<BR>
