What the Hail?

Wow! We had a string of storms blow through the area this afternoon. Luckily there was no major damage in our immediate area with the exception of any car that was parked outside (ours were thankfully garaged). We were under tornado warnings for most of the afternoon and spent a little while hanging out in our basement. The hail was amazing. You can see in the pictures what a wide variety of sizes there were. It sounded pretty cool hitting the house. The pile Hutch is standing in accumulated under a corner gutter area that often gets clogged. There are big divots in the yard where the golfball sized stones hit. Also cool is the perfect ball of ice contained inside each hailstone. You can see it in the pictures.
