If it did, I slept through it!! Just asked, and apparently it was Northern Suburbs somewhere. Blimey, Donna, you're more clued up about Sydney weather than I am!
There was also a gas pipe explosion last night, (which I also slept through.)

Why? This storm is a matter of record, I was in Melbourne at the time though blissfully slept through it. The news coverage showing the flooded freeways and the giant hailstorm with damaged cars looked a bit frightening. Even reported on BBC news website

Had another massive downpour with a bit of hail late this morning which lasted for about 15 minutes and the rest of the day has been beautiful warm sunny weather.
They're not wrong when they say that anything can happen with the weather in one day in Melbourne.

Around Woy Woy there were the golf ball hail stones. A few smashed windscreens I think.

Sydney harbour in a massive electrical storm is an amazing sight as long as you are doing a bridge climb.
