As I pulled down the home strech into my culdasac I was greeted by a double rainbow, one of the many rainbows I saw on the drive home this afternoon. The rainstorm was right along the edge of the coastal area. I was looking at a bright, clear sky to my left and a dark rainy storm above and to my right. It was a really cool drive down East Lake road.

Hail-storm
This evening has been an almost usual summer evening. Nothing eventful was happening. Off in the distance a rumbling could be heard, with only the faintest thoughts that a storm could be approaching. The rapidly approaching storm with just the right ingredients brought with it an unusual sight, hail! The cracks on the windows could have only been one thing. After a quick check on the front porch I found dime sides hail. Hail is truly rare here. I can’t remember the last time I saw or heard real hail falling from the sky. Considering the weather is about a million degrees, frozen water falling through the air and reaching the ground is sort of unusual. It happened this morning just after midnight. Below you’ll find the proof.
