We got hit by a hailstorm last night. It came up out of nowhere and did a fair bit of damage. The hail was the size of marbles and came down SO hard - I thought for sure the windows were gonna break!!
My hubby got hit in the head w/ one as he was running out to shut the car windows - and then he had to stay in the car till the storm passed b/c the hail was coming down too hard for him to get back inside. Thankfully our car is a piece of junk so the hail damage doesn't matter to us - but I'm sad b/c all my flowers got totally stripped! Here's a couple of pics I took after the storm (they're not too good as it was around 9pm when I took them and still raining):
This was just outside the front door.
My flower bed on the side of the house (thankfully that spot as well as the front were protected somewhat by the house b/c that's where all my favorite plants are!)
And this is what all my potted plants look like - the hail is melted now but all my poor plants sure took a beating!!
