Storm Of The Century

Smithfield had a crazy cloudburst and hail storm the other day. It only lasted about 20 minutes, but it was an intense 20 minutes! We could hear ongoing thunder almost the whole time, which was eerie. The rain was coming down faster than I've ever seen it, and I've never seen that much hail in that short a time either. Every town around us was dry too. Crazy.  A lot of our neighbors had water in their basements, but luckily we were fine. Just a lot of debris in our rocks and a ton of leaves on the ground when it was over. And the hail that was left on the ground lasted quite a while. We made the news and everything. One inch of water was dropped in that short amount of time. Just wild!
