Will have to go back and catch up the thread if my router stays on, but here to report a MAJOR thunderclap just rocked the house. I’m currently looking at drifts of hail on my lawn and on the street (southeast metro Denver). Mostly pea-sized, a few up to marble-size, but lots and lots of those nasty little white iceballs. So much for my mom’s lovely peonies that burst into bloom yesterday, and all my iris and columbines. *sniff*

Has been doing this for about 15 minutes straight now, just hoping it stops soon. And here we just had solar panels installed and turned on barely a month ago — will have to call insurance tomorrow to inspect the roof for damage.

On the other hand, it’s not a tornado and we’re at no risk of flooding and we’re nowhere near a lava flow, so it could be worse. Stay safe, all you lizards in the storm paths.
