| Re: Are all these storms normal?
In 2005 we had a very severe hail storm between Montreux and Lavaux. It happened very suddenly on a hot afternoon in July when the temperature dropped very quickly from 27 to 15 degrees. The picture was taken 2 hours after when the temperature had returned to 25 so you can imagine the hail stones were a lot larger when they landed. Many thousands of properties and cars were damaged and there was severe losses in the vineyards. The second pic is one of our garden chairs - glad I wasn't sitting on it !
