We have NO humidity this summer...I mean it's only been like 20 or 30% and that's nothing!! It's been in the 50's in the AM when it should be like yours in the high 70's. It's all screwed up here.

The poor trees suffered that bad freeze when it went from 80 to 18 and killed their leaves, now this hail storm makes them look like someone bushogged their tops out!! They've took a'whuppin this year!

Photo's in the email didn't work but this did. Damn, you got nailed!

Shoot you might as well just move up here, seeing as you are getting our normal weather.

Sorry about the hail, but hope you got some good rain with it. :x

Hail is one of those things you always worry about when it is going to be your turn. First summer out here we got it 2-3 times, just smal pebble sized stuff and haven't had any since.. But all around us folks have got hit with some Huge hail the last couple years.. Stuff would fill up your hand.. We tend to drive the vehicles into the sheds and stuff if we can if we get the warnings... The one good thing about hail is that as it melts it gets to seep into the ground.. Right now we are 88 with 30% humidity.. Heat index is actually lower than actual temp which is odd for this time of year.. We don't get deep sout humidity but we are usually a lot more humid than this... May-Early July is our hail/tornado season... We might get out with out much problem this year but also without much rain :cry:

During all that hail I saw some hit that was almost golf ball sized but most were half dollar sized.

Several people nearby had the vehicle windows busted out with the hail.

It's about 88 outside and there are still piles of hail in the valleys of the roof that have yet to melt.

Wow! Looks like Alberta after a snowfall. I guess it's moisture, but it would have been nice in drops instead of lumps!

Wow- that was amazing, but hope you didn't have any damage. What state were you in when you shot that video??

Home....Georgia.

No damage to vehicles or the like. Garden got smashed to mush. Bovines were totally confused by it all. But the grass has seemed to grow overnite.

I hope you keep the hail Kola-- our body shops and roofing contractors haven't caught up with the last bad hailstorm we had a couple years ago :roll:

Looks like a good share of the Dakotas, Nebraska and Central plains has/is picking up some good moisture :D :

hail rolled through here about 10 days ago....took a toll on the corn, and the beans are all but done..... it was only marble size, but the 60 mph winds really gave it a punch!

Kola, seeing that swing made me wish we could spend a quiet summer evening out there, sipping lemonade, and you sitting silently as I tell you how great George Bush is.....
