Looks like from the pics on the link on that thread you posted that they got marble-sized hail too. Not fun! I’ve had quarter-sized hail at my house before, but luckily not for long. Plus it wasn’t round ball-type hail. It was more flattened. So although it was fairly large in diameter, it wasn’t nearly as heavy as if it’d been solid. Plus I think the flat shape made it catch more air so it didn’t come down as fast. But that’s all purely speculation on my part.
We had a freak hail storm a few years ago. It came out of nowhere. Baseball size with a few that looked like soft balls. Never seen anything like it before.
Well I just heard from Becky, briefly, before we lost the connection. Mack came through the surgery today OK... and she’s really hoping that now they can get him home soon.
Then we got cut off. Waiting now to see if she’ll be able to call back... hope so.
