Default Hail, hail!!

We've been here for going on 14 years, and this is the first time we've seen hail. Lasted maybe 5-10 minutes, and they looked a little over a 1/2" diameter. Back up north in MA., the largest we ever would see were around a 1/4".

All hail breaks loose every now and then. I didn't get any today, but this last round of rain has dropped the temp about 15 degrees!

The shyster roofers will be arriving Monday to begin replacing roofs damaged by those big hail stones.

Ours did not look that big. Maybe pea size. Did last for about ten minutes. There might have been bigger ones for a short period. That would have been when I was not looking out the front windows but in a bedroom watching some sports or news show.
