A bit of a storm in Saint Mathieu

Had a bit of a storm yesterday afternoon - the power was off until early this morning.  Heard there was some damage at the lake at Saint Mathieu, and as we were passing, OH took some piccies on his phone.

The lake area is lovely - we often walk there with the dog.  There are little cabins which house the first-aid centre, refreshments, and a shower/changing area for bathers.  Some of the cabins have been completely smashed, and trees are damaged and toppled over. 

 

It looked as though a small tornado had passed through - some of the trees had lost branches, or had the tops ripped off but in a twisting motion, not merely snapped off.

Fortunately, no-one appears to have been injured

  1. Just catching up with blog reading, looks like that was a bad storm! What a shame it caused all that damage. Glad there were no casualties.
