STORMY WEATHER.
CANTERBURY’S EXPERIENCE.
MUCH DAMAGE TO CROPS.
Electric Telegraph—Press Association CHRISTCHURCH, This Day.
Further rain, hail and sleet storms raged in North Canterbury during the night and continued this morning. Considerable damage was done to fruit and standing crops. Many camping parties were driven to shelter.
The storm caused interruption of transmission last evening at the new 3YA station, Gebbies Pass. The normal programme had to be suspended for a time, while power was reduced to permit the- cleaning of a lead which had become coated with sleet. The weather continues stormy in this district, and to-day was very bleak and squally.
