Heard about it on EWN, pretty hectic but pluses. No crops so no damage and ice = water.

Apparently it was pretty hectic though.

What to do when it hails in Bloem? Walk through it in your short shorts, natch

Seriously amazing video though, I wouldn't have believed that if I didn't see it.

I had been following the infra red weather satellite photos throughout the day and saw what looked like something massive heading Bloem's way. Interesting to see the result.

According to the weather sites I follow, there was hectic rain around the standerton area last night.
Vaal catchment area is pretty much from Clarens east to the escarpment - I'm sure we'll see a significant amount of water flowing into the vaal dam soon...
