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.

I took several but they have to get developed. Our digital camera sucks.

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.

what city? I couldve been very close...about midnight I had a strong bow move thru...very heavy rain, extremely dangerous lightning, and strong winds...although I could only see the lightning from my bedroom window, I also heard a lot of howling from the winds
