YESTERDAY afternoon a severe storm with hailstones and damaging winds ravaged the Aberdeen town, uprooting trees, blowing away trampolines and trapping some residents in their vehicles.

“We also got 18 millimetres of rain, it hit hard and was savage,” said Aberdeen resident Aaron Cooke.

“Pretty sure there would be hail damaged vehicles throughout town,” he said.

The storm occurred shortly after the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) extended a severe weather warning to the Upper Hunter area.

Isolated storms were a result of humidity air masses clashing with a Southern Ocean cold front.

The BOM kept the weather warning in place for several hours however, only Aberdeen seemed to cop the brunt of the storm.
