Windstorm in Melbourne

FInally I can post this up, I know it’s already a week later but late is better than never. Last Friday, on the 2nd April 2008 a windstorm brought fellow South Australian nothing but terror.

Wind reaching 140km/h throwing everything possible to lift at people in the open. Wind strong enough to instantaneously halt everyone walking, making us covering every possible holes to prevent debris and sand from intruding our body.

Stuff falling of the roof of buildings, commuters couldn’t operate smoothly, even power went out causing thousands of homes without lights.

A couple unlucky souls went with the wind that day. Lucky for me to arrive home safely to snap this sandy sky.
