7PM: Malua Bay, south of Batemans Bay, looks like a snowfield this evening as hail blankets the ground.

The hailstorm comes after a week of extreme weather, with temperatures soaring into the 30s on Sunday morning, only to plummet this afternoon.
It follows a similar blast of summer last Thursday, where temperatures reached a peak of 34 degrees at Narooma and 34.8 degrees at Moruya Airport at 3pm.
Then the winds suddenly shifted and temperatures fell from 30.5 degrees at 4.41pm to 21.7 degrees at 4.54pm.
