Road safety warnings are in place as heavy fog clouds the Hills and southern suburbs after the state was lashed by hail on Wednesday.

South Australians are waking to showers and fog around the Hills and southern suburbs, prompting road safety warnings.

The cold and wet weather which lashed South Australia on Wednesday is expected to hang around with more rain on its way.

On Wednesday, 8.8mm rain fell in the Adelaide Hills with only 1mm in the city and scattered showers reported across the state.

A Facebook user Zachary Lienert was creative in a hailstorm near Port Lincoln, with a video showing the man keeping his beers icy cold.

“Oh well if ya not crying because it’s wrecking the crops, ya certainly gotta have a laugh,” he posted.
