| Notes: |
So small and delicate, hard to claim actual indentations. All were 0.15 - 0.20" sized. When touched by metal ruler , hail melted immediately. Most were round, white. Did not distort nor shatter upon impact with hard ground but melted quickly, those landing on thick groundcover type shrubs lasted a few minutes before melting. Or was this grauple, not hail?
Footnote: since hail has a higher density than grauple, and is usually semi-transparent and rounded, this must have been grauple, not hail. |
