We had an abrupt storm yesterday. The storm was expected, the hail wasn't. Hail poured down for almost 20 minutes & covered the yard. The rain was still pouring & the wind roaring. The trees lost a lot of leaves. After it ended, everything was covered in bumpy ice. The heat of the ground quickly melted the hail causing a 15 minute steam bath.
This happened so quickly & harshly, some local weather equipment read the temperatures had fallen way below -20 F. Of course it hadn't. The equipment was just overwhelmed. It quickly reset. Even so, the temperatures did do a pretty significant drop. This morning was a little chilly & it still hasn't warmed up yet.
We were lucky. So far, we haven't noticed any hail damage. A lot of people in the area had significant damage from the storm. The storm has passed for now & the sun is shining.
Cya...
