Abstract: A severe hail storm on the afternoon of Sunday, 23rd December, 1956, caused extensive damage to exotic forests and shelter belts along a definite path in the Mid and North Canterbury area. Most exotic conifers suffered in some way but one plantation of Pinus ponderosa now has a large number of dead or dying trees in it. In this article, there is a description of the storm and the type of damage that resulted.
