  1. Fortunately I’ve been spared from Thor #Hailstorm and thunder

  2. So my neck of the woods just had a #hailstorm with, at its worst, hailstones the size of marbles. That tends to get your attention. I was driving around in my Little Black Jellybean (small yet mighty!) when it started coming down hard. Kinda sounded like living in a popcorn maker. Anyway, this car FLEW past me on the highway and I was about to be annoyed when I took a closer look and went, "well, okay."

    Because they were driving a convertible. With the top down. In the middle of a hailstorm.

    I could see them mentally reviewing every life choice they'd ever made as they flew by.

  3. Yikes! Monster 6-inch #hailstone likely to shatter Illinois state record

    Hail the size of grapefruit fell in #Illinois Wednesday night, and that may qualify as a new state record, if it can be officially confirmed.

    By Jesse Ferrell, Mar 11, 2026

    Excerpt: "Other Skywarn spotters and storm chasers also found big hail, as large as 6.4 inches across in Kankakee, 5.5 inches at Campus, #Illinois, and 5.2 inches near Buckingham, Illinois. Hailstones 4.5 inches in diameter were also reported in #Texas and #Missouri on Wednesday. The large hail came from an intense storm stretching nearly from #Mexico to #Canada. "

  8. We just had a small hail storm roll through.

    It was wild watching the clouds roll up and feel the air being drawn in instead of the usual downdraught.

    All the horses that we could see were very unimpressed.

  9. Tuli ihan huolella niitä rakeita.

    Representing: Finnish summer. Not that #SilentSunday today because of the storm.

    EDIT: Tuli niin huolella, että tuossa puolen kilsan päässä kauppakeskus Lundissa tulvii rakeista hajonneen sadevesijärjestelmän takia.

    EDIT 2: Taas tulee rakeita!

  11. #Hailstorm in Portland following a massive clap of thunder. Thunderstorms in Portland used to be a rare thing. But then so did days above 90°F

  12. This literally came out of nowhere.

    Edit to add: It's extremely rare to get hail like this outside of a thunderstorm, I think.

  13. ICYMI -- From May 2024.

    Summer turns to winter: #Hailstorm drops temperature from 90s to 50s

    It looked and felt more like winter in part of #Texas after a hailstorm coated the ground in ice and caused the temperature to plunge almost 40 degrees.

    By Jesse Ferrell, AccuWeather meteorologist and senior weather editor

    Published May 30, 2024

    " When a thunderstorm hits on a hot day, it can quickly reduce the temperature from 90 degrees Fahrenheit to 70, but to get much colder, you need hail -- and a lot of it.

    "Harry Weinman witnessed such a storm on Wednesday evening in Marathon, Texas. Weinman told AccuWeather that his car thermometer dropped from 93 to 53 degrees in a few minutes. Quarter-sized hail piled up several inches deep and stripped leaves from the trees, changing the landscape into what looked like a winter wonderland. "

  14. #Mexico’s wild weather weekend: #extremeheat strong winds and hail

    MND Staff
    May 27, 2024

    "Residents of central Mexico may have thought they were accompanying Dante through the Inferno in a freakishly wild weekend for weather.

    "Extreme heat, destructively strong winds and a consequential #hail storm — all accompanied by #flooding — tormented central Mexico beginning on Friday.

    [...]

    "Meanwhile in #MexicoCity, capitalinos sweltered in the extreme heat all weekend. Sunday was the third consecutive day in which a record was set. The mercury hit 33.8 degrees Celsius (93˚F), which is a new all-time record for May 26.

    "A day earlier, the temperature topped out at 34.7C, surpassing the all-time record set on May 9. Friday’s high also climbed above 34C, setting a new record for May 24."
