I haven't been around as much lately due to work, but man has it been a week for storms!
Just tonight, I witnessed the most amazing hail storm I have ever seen in person. Unfortunately my truck, and to a lesser degree my car could have done without it. Considering the terrible storm related incidents of the last few weeks I cannot complain!
Tonight I was at my weekly wood working event with some of my close friends. What we thought was heavy rain was much more. When we eventually went outside to see what was going on we saw nickel, then quarter size hail falling in sheets. This quickly turned into ping pong ball size and literally was shredding the leaves off of the 60 to 80 foot trees on my friends estate. This then turned to two inch diameter hail and continued for several more minutes. It was as if it snowed chopped up green leaves and small branches a couple inches thick:eek:
I am only up this late posting to wait for the tornado warnings to lapse! I hope everyone is safe from what has been a brutal April, weather wise!
