On the way home from work today, we decided to stop and get A&W and I am glad we did because the weather got really bad. According to the weather network, the hail was 25mm thick and it was raining/hailing so hard outside looked white. It also got really windy. There was constant thunder and lightning. Now only about 20 minutes later, it is sunny out.

I took this picture with my blackberry to show just how much rain came down within about 10 minutes (but only less than 5 minutes was raining really hard).

Yes that is what it look like about 6A.M. here, we got a huge thunderstorm, hail and tons of rain..it clogged the storm drains and the streets flooded. Good thing it melted quickly though. We also lost power for a couple of hours..

It still doesn't look to promising out right now either so we could get another storm yet...

We got that too. We were on our way into London when it hit us.

We could see only a few feet infront of us/ We have a jeep with a soft top.. and the sound of the hail and rain hitting the top was scary. Sounded like they were going to rip right through it.
