Hi all,

 

Been a while since posting here.

Thursday Night I sat in my car watching endless IC and CC lightning for 5 hours.

All I had was my iPhone and a battery pack, the footage was pretty much useless and all of the lightning was out of focus.

Ive always wanted to see large hail in the uk and Thursday night I got what I wanted with dents in my car roof !

A mixture of marble size, pea size and some golf balls thrown in.

Im 45, but on Thursday night I was 15, giddy and stupid, im also a bit Mad.

The stones you might be able to see bouncing on the tarmac up to the kerbstones were about 20-25 feet away, but I was so utterly immersed in the whole event I forgot 
to get out of the car and pick some up....doh !


Poor quality video:

Thanks for the replies,

 

To be honest, I wanted bigger hail dents in my car ! :yahoo:

 

I was parked on a farm driveway, im calling them tomorrow to ask if they had any damage, or even better a picture of the hailstones.
