Wow... never seen that before.  That's gotta be crazy to be sitting it and realizing it doesn't seem to be letting up.

I got caught in the hail riding home on the motorcycle.  What fun it was getting hit by hail in some tender places.

That was a weird storm... Raining on my house, the street, and the driveways across the street, but the roofs across the street were bone dry.  I can count the times I've seen that on one hand, with fingers left over.
