OK, That Was Cool

We just got hail the size of peas in San Francisco. Now, I realize hail can get a lot bigger than that in other parts of the world, like the size of canned hams and such. But for San Francisco, pea-sized hail is pretty big. And what was cool about it was I heard it coming. There was a lot of thunder, and some lightning, and then I heard this distant...thrashing sound. And it slowly got louder, like something was getting closer. And then it got to my neighborhood and it sounded like a dumptruck in the sky had just unloaded a billion pebbles on my roof.

Scary. But awesome.
