We had our first hailstorm a couple of weeks ago. I'd never seen hail before in my life. It's really wild! Glad you were not out on a ride when it happened.

I was in the hail storm twice today. Once while at work and then when I got home. Apparently, the storm took that long to get from one part of NY to my house. My poor car.

Isn't it funny how something completely normal to one person is bizarre to another? When I looked at those pictures that looked like tiny hail to me, wouldn't even faze us Texans. Now put down a dusting of snow or ice and the world stops here but I have had friends from New York who think we are silly for getting panicked about it. My friend from Connecticut also couldn't believe the high overpasses we have here since ice is a rare occurance.

Ditto what AggieAma said.
Hail can be so...LOUD...andy scary
I was in a horse show once. I hailed but it was in October. I couldn't decide if it was hail or sleet. My horse got really freaked out.
