Kids play outside during “Worst Storm in 50 Years”
Drive faster, Paw!!
Mum here!
Check out the video…You won’t believe it’s calm, weatherless Perth! We came through a doozy! The good news is that we’re all fine, despite being at the local rubbish tip/dump when the storm hit (flat plain, surrounded by metal, on the back of a metal truck) with lightning flashing all around.
The old house doesn’t have any damage at all that I could see; although all of our neighbours have smashed windows and water damage. Grammy and Poppa’s house is NOT waterproof, but our new house looks fine from the outside.
L gets a few days off of school, because the roof of the outdoor area is destroyed. And the hospital (where my office is) still hasn’t restored full power. My office has two inches of water in it and a collapsed ceiling.
The good news is that we don’t have to repair the old house before it goes on the market this weekend!!!!
And yes, the kids had a great time darting outside to grab hailstones and other fun stuff during the brief moments of calm in the weather. We’ve got golfball sized hailstones filling the freezer (some people around here were pummeled by baseball-sized monsters!).
