Now that is some big hail stones! I sure wouldn't want to be caught outside in that.

Is that a hail storm or a civil war cannon bombardment?

Saw a clip last night on UK news showing someone in Texas holding a hail stone the size of a cricket ball.....scary

I've been out in golf ball size hail just to pick them up back in the mid 60s. Yeah they freeking hurt. Tho they didn't do the damage that DWF hail storm did coming thru the windows, as it only lasted less than 5 minutes where I was up in Northern NY. Windows, roofs, and cars had little or no damage. I see we were real lucky compared to DFW.

I can't imagine a hail storm like that one and the second video with baseball size hail. Unreal.
