Hail

I noted the cloud build up in the Thompson-Wright Revisited post. 


I'm happy to report we made it home before the assault commenced.


While at the Preserve I received an alert that severe thunderstorms were on the way.


And so they were.


The report from my weather station. Extreme.


The leaves in the image are about a half inch wide at their widest.




This went on for a good ten minutes.

Crazy.


This was the most significant hail storm I've witnessed. And the wort I hope hits our place. I can't image what a storm with golf ball sized hail would be like.

Although the weather geek in me thinks it would be cool to see. As long as it was somewhere else, and not here.
