Hail! Posted by Fred DC on April 27, 2025, 1:15 pm We had a bad storm with wind, hail and rain. It shredded a lot of leaves on Magnolia macrophylla and destroyed a tomato plant. It also damaged my leaf lettuce and radishes. https://i.ibb.co/bR7wjS6t/IMG-6393.jpg https://i.ibb.co/TxWbxgnb/IMG-6398.jpg https://i.ibb.co/hR834ksr/IMG-6403.jpg https://i.ibb.co/xKQPRTNY/IMG-6401.jpg

Re: Hail! Posted by Jason Western PA on April 27, 2025, 8:45 pm, in reply to "Hail!" Oh man. One time the guys at work were out working in a storm and they heard this noise. It started with one. Poof....When they saw it they all dove under the trucks. The hail was about golf ball size, if not bigger All the cars, metal roofing, and windshields had dings in them.

Re: Hail! Posted by Alvin, z6 on April 27, 2025, 8:59 pm, in reply to "Hail!" Wow, Fred. We rarely get hail, up here. When we do, it's usually dime-sized, or smaller, but during thunderstorms. Does the hail go straight through the Mag leaves?
