BubbleShare: Share photos - Craft Ideas
At the end of July Nelson was hit by its most severe storm for many years. Gale force winds caused havoc in Nelson, Stoke and Richmond. Many large mature trees were blown over and the damage to buildings and properties was estimated to cost millions of dollars to repair. Our boundary fence between our garden and our two neighbours was blown over (31 metres). Some cars which were parked at the side of the road beside the college were flattened by falling trees. A huge gum tree in a garden behind our house was blown over. These photographs were taken about a week later. Because it had fallen on a hillside into a neighbours garden the only way to clear it was by using a helicopter and a crane. I wouldn't like to see that insurance bill!
