Today, it was predicted that we might have severe weather. This afternoon about 4:30, I went outside & took a picture of the sky looking in both directions down our street. To the right, it looked like this.
To the left, it looked like this.
Kinda yucky both ways, right? Well, you can see the distance from the curb to the houses on our street, right? It's not all that far. I turned from taking the picture (above) & walked back to our door and before I got the door shut, the storm hit. Yes, that fast. Immediately, giant hail began to fall. Check it out! It was still falling HARD in this picture.
When it slowed down, we went out to see the hail. Very weird to see THIS MUCH so fast. It only fell for about 5 or 6 minutes & then it stopped just as quickly as it started.
Some of the hail was slightly bigger than a golf ball. This one had already begun to melt a little bit.
We had some fun with the hail, building lots of tiny hail men. ha ha
Of course, it was 75 most of the day. After this storm, it cooled off quite a bit. Who knows what we'll have tomorrow. 4" of snow? A Bahamas-like summery February day? It's anybody's guess.
