Wordless Wednesday: Carlsbad Hailstorm

 

Hailstorm in Carlsbad January 25 2021

 

Perhaps this should have been titled Wordless Monday, which was when we had our winter storm with very heavy winds and lots of rain in the San Diego area for most of the day, but beginning over the weekend.

 

And we got to enjoy a hailstorm, too...for about 2 minutes. It was quite loud and the cats were both freaked out. I haven't seen hail, at least at our house, since 2006.

We have a cold day in Maryland and are thankful that we are not having hail, sleet or snow.

I haven't seen hail since 2020! haha.

That's very unusual for your area. I would have taken a photo as well. Were your cars safe from damage?

Maybe it could have been Mums the Word Monday, haha.  I think we got some hail in my area too.

Hi Jeff,

I've been through a couple of hail storms myself.  The animals got freaked out and spooked to.  It's amazing at times what nature can throw at us.  At least you were safe and you could write about it!

Glad it didn't ruin the b-day celebration. Yep, we had quite a storm with amazing wind! The hail was a bonus...lol.

CANDACE (Candy) STEVENS  - yep, they were pretty concerned about the wind anyhow, but the hail really spooked them. It was short and they recovered!

I've seen some pretty good damage due to hail - these were pretty small but it was pretty noisy.

I didn't see any damage Kathy Streib  No doubt it ruined a few blossoms, though.

It's rare for us James Dray but I imagine it's more common in the mountains, as is the snow.

Yikes Nina Hollander ! That's some hail...imagine being caught outside in it!

Our hail was pretty small...smaller than mothballs.

I heard you had some rough weather recently Brian England 

True enough Jeffrey Richman  It certainly could have been a more serious storm!!

Hi Rocky Dickerson 

Sounds like much of California got this storm over the last few days - we certainly needed the rain and snow!

Jeff, at least it looks like the hail was small.  When we get those storms, they cause damage.

WOW! That was a nice ground-covering there, Jeff! We occasionally have hail here and that's about as large as we get. When we have hail storms, the roofers are in all of their glory, going through neighborhoods, convincing the residents they need new roofs! Somehow they manage to get them covered by all of the different insurance companies too.

Jeff Dowler, CRS - With an unexpected hail storm in CA, I can understand where the word scaredy cat came from! Glad to know you survived your winter storm.
