bob saunders and I were watching some football this afternoon when it began to rain, then the wind picked up, then the hail started falling...for 10 minutes.

At one point the hail was the size of tennis balls.

Well it was bouncing off my skylight and over the fence but miraculously no dents in my Jeepeta, well, no new ones. Some were golf-ball sized. My neighbours avocado trees were stripped, and there were trees fallen everywhere and copious amounts of water. Kind of fun from inside a house. Lightening and thunder were horrendously loud and close.
