I remember this storm so vividly. It was the very last day of year 11 and my bus (301 route to Toombul) dropped me off on Zillman road, about 1.5km from my house. I remember looking at the storm front rolling in and thinking, holy shit, I need to run home NOW. I was in school uniform with all my bags running home and I remember getting looks from people in their cars, meanwhile the storm was coming in closer. As I neared home it started raining and the storm was coming overhead, the blackest clouds I'd ever seen and I'd grown up in SEQ my whole life. As soon as I got through the door the hail started pelting down, I'd never seen anything quite like it. Was always glad I had the common sense to run home though
We were celebrating our first Thanksgiving away from home in Bowen Hills that day. This hit an hour before our party started. For reasons I cannot fathom, we still had a lot of Aussies brave this chaos in order to join us!
Summer in November. Living north of the equator, I forget that while I might be freezing my butt off, Y'all are enjoying the summer, well not that day anyway.
Brisbane looks wonderful. I love Australia. I wish i live there because i love the summer the whole year and the country is beautiful and going strong. And i love thunderstorms, but only no one is injured or worse. Only when no one is hurt i love these storms.
The image of the bus near the end is spooky as hell. I can't imagine would it would have been like to be on that bus during the storm. And the "Help! Call Police" display.....like one of those end of the world movies. Awesome video though, I love storms.
If memory serves correct, I was in Brisbane at the time this one hit. I followed it up after a trip to Goldie, through the city and nearly all the way to Petrie where I was living.
I remember this storm. I live at Kelvin Grove at the QUT campus and it was just beyond belief. Hail knocking out windows in the buildings and everything on my balcony destroyed. It was really really violent.
I was sprinting home from work that afternoon because I could see the clouds, I was about 100m from home when it started pouring and I was soaking wet by the time I made it to my door lol.
So over the years I've learned beyond seeing clouds like that, if the wind starts to pick up really bad then seek shelter. Because you'll usually have little time before all hell breaks loose
I remember when I was little I used to love the wizard of oz and when this storm happened and I was in Brisbane at the time I said "OUR HOUSE WILL LIFT UP INTO THE SKY LIKE DORITHYS!".
"Help!!! Call police" is right...while the windshield wipers wave ineffectually back & forth in the air... During the first ride across the bridge, notice the distinct green color in the clouds on the left. That's always a very foreboding sign in an approaching storm.
I still remember that day. I was in Brisbane south side celebrating my mums birthday and we all just stood in the backyard and watched that beast roll in, as it got close you could actually hear it roaring.
I remember that storm. I’d just started my new job that week on the 21st floor of Riparian plaza. The windows in the building rattled and we saw a deck chair and someone’s clothes horse fly past the window, swept away from a nearby apartment building. (It landed on Friday’s roof). When the storm finished, the city smelt like a garden salad from all the freshly shredded leaves stripped off the trees. And so many cars had smashed out windows. The bus stops on Adelaide st were packed to the max with people as the trains were down.
On that arvo, I managed to make it onto a train at Park Road once the hail began. The sound of hail pelting that train cabin was ridiculously loud. The train remained there for a few hours which gave me enough time to venture to UQ via bus to grab some dinner... saw a whole bunch of trees uprooted. Really sad site considering I did my undergrad and postgrad there.
Lol. Poor bus. I live in colorado. We had baseball hail here a couple weeks ago. Big hail is no joke. Destroys a lot of cars and roofs and windows. Glad you had the bus stop for cover.
I remember reading in the paper about a woman in the Logan area where it was really bad whose car windows had been smashed in by the hail so she used her own body to protect her baby. She was covered in massive bruises with a big cut on her face. It was strange because the northern part of Brisbane I lived in was barely touched, just trees and some power lines taken down, debris etc. To read how someone was almost battered to death by hailstones was surreal.
I was in a bar in Southbank when this storm hit, a woman came rushing in from the hail with a shredded umbrella and blood all over her face and head...
To : Jeremy T, I remember a hail storm that I was in & it was a really bad one in 1984, and that was 35 year's ago! I went to go see a heavy metal band called KILLER HEAD and all of a sudden this bad storm came out of nowhere? Alot of us that got caught in it, we got hurt real bad like myself,everyone got scared & didn't no what to do & I got stepped on real bad it left my paralyzed from the waist down? I have 2 spinal bones that are split to pieces that they can't fix, and I miss walking around with my family and friends!! So if your in a heavy spot Jeremy, stay alert and keep yourself safe okay ?? I'm gonna give this video 10 STARS ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡, because I like your video's & if you have more out there, can we see more like this?? ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
I remember this storm. I was in the city that morning, and I had a gut feeling that something big was coming, so I left the city and got home as fast as I could, I didn't want to be stuck in the city with a storm coming.
I was caught driving in my car in this, we thought the windscreen was going to break, whole car pounded with hail when we pulled over waited for it to pass. So frightening.
I was picking my brother up that day in Chermside and my mum was on the phone to my dad and he was like “I just went though loads of hail be careful” and my mums like “HOLY THERES HAIL HITTING US NOW!!” and we pulled into Craigslea or however you spell it. And rode out the storm. I was only like 7
I was at Easts Leagues Club in Brisbane on that day. I remember looking up and seeing the ugliest cloud I've ever seen. I knew something brutal was on the way. 20 minutes later the gates of hell opened and golf ball sized hail rained down, with super strong wind and sideways rain. It was proper mental. Lasted about 15 minutes.
I remember that storm. I nearly finished year 1 when that happened. My grandparents picked me up and said ‘WE HAVE A BIG STORM COMING, WE DONT HAVE TIME TO GO TO MACDONALDS, WE NEED TO GET HOME BEFORE IT HITS US. We went home and during that storm, we lost power for a couple of days. A couple of hours after we lost power. We went to my aunties and uncles house to pick up some candles and then returned home. The alarm was going off so my grandfather turned it off while my grandmother and I were in bed. My parents were in England then. A couple of days later, the power is back on.
I remember this storm smashing out all the traffic lights on Ipswich Rd and wrecking my car. Lightning blew out neighbours aerial and fried a few things in our house. Smashed up heaps of buses near the city along with a lot of cars. Always good to remind myself for next month to get that undercover spot at the station. Cool vid BTW.
Wow I remember this storm (so it was definitely a big one). Lots of damage around Brisbane CBD with roads blocked by branches, broken windows etc... It was probably the worst I've seen the place in a while 😅
I remember that day. Had to close down Work because several skylights in the factory started leaking and one shattered. Good reason to use the insurance to re-roof the entire factory the week after. Never had a problem the next time things started getting Stormy. The Boss even had us park our cars inside the next time we had a severe hailstorm.
I was in grade 4 at the time and I didn't have to go to school the day after because part of our Dam flooded into the main entrance way into our accerage and there was a ton of trees and branches across the road we took to school so I just spent the day relaxing
I don't know if this was the day but I remember I became completely drenched just after 10 seconds of stepping out then the train stopped operating because the tracks were flooded so I had to get off way before my actual stop. I know it was in late 2014 so this could be it?
scooter feg here in parts of Brisbane all we had today was heavy rain meanwhile at about 7-8 pm 24th of December 2019 it just flogged down lighting and everything

Haha NO! It gets like a million degrees over here!!!
@@sharonringrose3620 now it is xD but 2 weeks before it was freezing
It's a nostalgic feeling for me.. Thank u...❤❤❤
It feels so good to sleep during rain or hurricanes
Until lighting hit right outside ur house
Until your realize the hurricane forms a tornado that increases to a EF-5 and destroys your house before you are able to get under ground.
Guess your another idiot that wanna die

We’re just gonna skip over the freaking awesome bike lanes? As an American I would dream of lanes like those!
Really? 😲 That's a pretty standard thing across Australian cities.
Don't worry about them, 60% of the bike riders here don't bother to use them...

Beautiful infrastructure that encourages people to keep fit, stay healthy, and not become obese.
The direct opposite of America sadly.

The windshield wipers gave it the air of a crippled dalek
It's about the height of the storm. Denotes hail and possibly tornadoes.
