I Was Reminded…

Yesterday we had some pretty nasty storms move through our area!  We had strong winds, heavy rain and tornado warnings – thankfully, no damage or actual tornadoes!  Yet, about this time last year we had a truly wicked storm hit our area!  We had rain, weird clouds, a wall cloud, fierce winds and hail which came down horizontally because of the wind!  The hail pummeled the West side of our home and even broke a window!  Although the largest hail was about the size of a ping pong ball there was soooo much of it!  It looked as if it had snowed.  Here are a few pictures of what things looked like a year ago after that storm!undefined

The ground was covered with hail!  undefinedThe day was warm so what looks like “fog” is actually steam coming up from the hail!

Notice how the hail beat down the “weeds” in the foreground?  It stripped all the flowers I had coming up as well!  *sigh*undefinedThe weird clouds!  Guess they mean hail is coming.undefinedundefined The leaves were stripped off the trees and laying on the road!undefinedundefinedundefined The Wall Cloud over a wheat field – after it had hailed!
