    The rain was coming down sideways here for a while.
    Still have hail on the ground and more rain is coming.

    Be safe, all those in the path of these storms.
    They are powerful.

    Wow! I think the biggest hail I've seen in person was, maybe, 1/4" across!

    Stay safe!!

    Wow...that's big. A couple of days ago my area got hit with a bad storm. There was 3 1/2" hailstones in Bellbrook & Centerville Oh. My area just got a bad thunderstorm. Friends that live in Bellbrook had hail damage to their roof, the siding on their house will have to be replaced and 2 cars have broken windshield & big dents all over. The leaves from their trees were stripped & plastered all over their house. Very Scary.

    I'm in Wadesboro. We had heavy rain today but nothing like the hail you had. Glad you're okay!

    Oh goodness Sandi...glad to hear no damage. We had hail last week and while it looked like snow piled up nothing like what you got. I have been enjoying our spring type weather and have been out doing some yard work but it won't last long another rain storm on the way.
