We were having a crazy lightning storm when I went to bed about 11:30 last night. We were still having it when I got up to use the bathroom at 3:30, and I got up at about 4:00 when the hail started coming down. Luckily it stopped getting worse at less than dime size and ended in a few minutes. SW of me at Chanhassen wasn’t so lucky.
This was the largest hail stone we could find here at our office. Has melted some, but 2” in diameter is where we maxed out. Looks like storm was at its max intensity right over Chan and has since weakened some as it has moved over to EP/Shakopee areas. #mnwx pic.twitter.com/hFuwa2g2S4
