wow there nasty chunks of ice

living in brisbane in the early 80s .. we had one that came through
that dropped similar sized stones through the southern suburbs
bulimba ,morningside ,valley .. but lasted for 20 minutes .. every house
that had a window faceing SW had them all broken .. the ice down the road from home hit one of those big steel electricity towers and sort of deflected down at its base .. The ice was in huge piles all around it 5 feet deep and didn't melt for 3 days ( 35 + temps ).. never seen anything like it and don't want to either !!
