Hail

#1 Postby Brent » Wed Apr 19, 2006 3:26 pm

Tons of mainly pea sized hail here... yard is covered in spots.

Quarter sized now. It is really coming down. I went out and got some and put it in the freezer. :lol:

A few busted windshields is all I've heard.

Also some isolated wind damage and maybe a couple of brief tornadoes(not confirmed).

171 reports today, 152 of them hail and 11 of them 2" or larger. :eek:
