Dramatic footage has emerged from China of a hailstorm battering a city in southeastern China.

The video, shot in Xinyu, Jiangxi Province on May 11, shows the massive hailstones smashing to the ground and creating a noise as they hit a lake.

According to local reports, the storm only lasted for three minutes but some of the hailstones were described as being as big as eggs.
