Jeff I guess that is your version of the white stuff.  Do they make hail shovels??? ☺️

Hello Jeff - nature continues to "tease" us with all types of weather activity.  It can definitely frustrate and/or fascinate us.  And that's up to us.

Hi Michael Jacobs 

I was certainly glad for the rain - we need it so badly - but not a fan of all the wind!

Jeff,

Have not seen hail here since 2010.  We are still experiencing showers after a brief respite, and tomorrow they are predicting rain all day.  It is good for our reservoirs and snow base.  A

Jeff we went through quite a storm with rain and hail heading down to Central Phoenix on Monday. Since it was Gary's birthday we went to one of our favorite lunch places that has a lot of open windows and doors. OMG they were rushing fast to get everything closed up.  It was totally crazy....but kind of fun too!  We haven't had rain in so, SO long.

Hail on a roof is loud and if it comes down loud enough the damage follows

Hi Jeff... those hail storms can be loud and scary. Last time we had a really big one in my area hail was the size of baseballs. I got a brand new roof out of that storm.

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!

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.

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.
