Huge hailstones, lightning, strong winds and heavy rain hit the Eyre Peninsula, west of Adelaide, on Monday morning before moving across the state.

State Emergency Services (SES) west coast regional duty officer Tony Stockham said they have been have been inundated with calls, while efforts made by SES crews to reach call-out locations had been hindered.

“In some areas the roads have been all but impassable because of the size of the trees that have fallen,” he said. Read More / Watch Video »

The magnitude of an earthquake is related to the length of the fault on which it occurs — the longer the fault, the larger the earthquake. To generate a super earthquake of 10.5 magnitude would require a fault 1000 miles long.
The largest earthquake ever recorded was a magnitude 9.5 on May 22, 1960 in Chile on a fault that is almost 1,000 miles long. The African Rift Zone on which Israel sits is about 3,500 miles long.

The magnitude scale is open-ended, and scientists can’t rule out a “Mega Quake” because they’ve only been measuring earthquakes for 100 years. Read More / Watch Video »

Air pollution hugely increases the size of hail, and thus the amount of damage it can cause to crops and property, according to a study presented at the European Conference on Severe Storms.
The interaction of man-made particles with airborne ice could also interfere with the way heat is distributed in the earth·s atmosphere, with possible consequences for climate change, one of the study·s authors told AFP.

Like tornados, hail is generated by small-scale storms that are difficult to track, and thus almost impossible to forecast. While they rarely last more than a few minutes, they can be devastating. Read More / Watch Video »
