First day of spring, wtf?
Thunder and lightning started to roll in as I was getting ready this morning. I peeked out the window and noted it hadn't started to rain just yet, so I called my dog and we went out in hopes of letting her do her business before the storm reached us.
As I was waiting, I heard a rumble approaching from the distance. It grew louder and louder. I thought to myself, "Wow, that's some really heavy rain!"
And then it hit me. Hard. Repeatedly.
It wasn't rain at all! It was hail! Gumball-sized balls of ice!
My dog and I raced back indoors before the painful ice balls could deal too much damage to our bodies.
At least an inch of hail accumulated outside my door before it transitioned over to rain. Very strange weather. What a way to start spring!
