Word is out Melbourne, Australia got killed with hail recently causing over $800 million dollars worth of damage. PDR hail chasers from all around the world have just arrived and set up shop and plan to be there for a long while. It’s just the beginning of hail season and hopefully this is a lasting start of another good year.

Sources say there was another hit as well in Australia but we must confirm the source before stating so called facts.

Good luck to all the pdr hail chasers and happy traveling.
