You have to see it to believe it...

I had always heard about hail the size of golf balls, but it's a difficult concept to grasp when all the biggest hail you've seen is the size of a blueberry. Well, last July, my perception was changed. We suddenly got a huge summer storm, and the hail that came crashing down was approaching golf ball size (though still not quite there). We grabbed this piece from our balcony, and it was melting fast when we took the photos.
