Dark clouds,thunder & bikes flying past my house

'73 H1 Triple · 03-29-2009, 05:39 PM

I can hear thunder in the distance and see dark clouds overhead. For some odd reason the motorcyclists are driving past my house faster than normal

I hope they make it home as it's suposed to be nasty

{edit} I'm going to eat a nice hot dinner while we still have electric

Pork roll sammies and mac & cheese. We went for a quick lite meal.

So we got torrential downpour followed by hail

Action shot of the hail coming down.

Some of the pea sized hail in my hand ( my ring is a size 12 )

You got the shit that rolled through Harrisburg late this afternoon. We had 2 tornado's touch down here.

Pfft. That's not hail. This is hail...

KSGregman · 03-29-2009, 08:25 PM

Neither of those two pictures show hail....

THIS is hail...and these are only the fragments....they were blowing to pieces as they fell out of the wall cloud passing over my house...they must have been the size of grapefruits before impact. :O

Peas or Grapefruit, either way, hail sucks.

I have dents on my car from last weeks storm. I stood there in my third floor apartment, leaning on my crutch watching everyone else move their cars under cover while my poor Scion just sat there getting hit

It was sad.
