Notes: |
During a downpour, it started off as light sporadic hail. it grew in intensity and size for about 5-10 minutes until larger hail (3/8") was coming down. After another 2-3 minutes of larger hail, size went down to pea-sized (1/4"), but much more intense storm. This intense hail continued for about 10 minutes, covering the ground with ice. The downpour continued throughout the entire hailstorm.
There probably would have been substantial leaf damage if we had many leaves on the tree
