Before this week of perpetual thunder, we kicked off our summer with several extended periods of sunshine. It was beautiful. The two exceptions were Thursday, June 9 and Friday, June 17 when we were hit with the most extreme hailstorms I've ever seen.
Both days it was close to 90 degrees. Both days I was out with the children, unfortunately, and they wailed in horror as the sky suddenly opened, a gust of wind knocked us around, and our car was pelted with golf-ball size ice for over 30 minutes. I took the photo above almost an hour after it all began last Friday. I could not believe my eyes. Our yard was covered with perfectly rounded balls that we could pick up and throw.
Such a weird weather month for us. Part of me loves the extremes. Keeps things interesting. But I'm praying it doesn't follow us to the beach next week. A week of relaxing, UNinteresting weather would be nice for a change.
