Lasted about 20 minutes. I'm sitting in my living room, listening to the distant thunder right now.

But it sure sounded odd, we just got from the landlord these big garbage carts, and the hail hitting the tops of those carts sounded so different.

This is the biggest hail I've ever seen, all the other times I saw hail it was pea-size.

These are marble-sized.

When I see those huge hailstones the size of baseballs or bigger, I cringe thinking about anyone outside in that.
