Hail to Albuquerque

Yesterday we had the first measurable precipitation in many months, and it was a real storm. I hope there will be more rain in the future, but none is forecast for this week.

You can see the water going over the top of our rain barrel. That was quite a storm.

Love hail. Sounds weird to say, but I do love hail.

Goodness, would never have thought of a hot area like that having hail!

[Denise Wood]

terrific hail capture :)

[Kathie]

Rain is good. Hail can be bad. Interesting POV

I hope you didn't get any dents in your car. I think I would prefer rain to hail.

@bigdad @mylissy15 @bkbinthecity @ranger1 @casablanca @gilbertwood @kathiecb @888rachel Thanks so much for your comments about my photo of the hail storm. Lucky for us, our cars were parked in our garage.

@casablanca We are in the high desert (6,000 feet elevation) so we are not that hot. In the summer, it rarely gets over 90 degrees. Our problem, this year especially and in recent ones as well, is a bad drought.

@janeandcharlie That's fascinating, thank you for the information. Nice to learn something new! Hope you get some rain sometime then.

we had a bad hail storm recently too! My poor plants took a beating!
