@crossy70@crossy70 yes, was very hot that day and afternoon. am no meteorologist, but it seems like some of the more violent storms happen when hot, muggy air collides (for lack of a better term) with cooler air, and that the air and moisture higher up in a storm system can be freezing (and thus the violent nature of the storm, with the different pressures and temps "colliding"). just my guess. but i think it's pretty common to have hail after a hot, muggy day. thanks for viewing, btw.
I thought it was 88 F (record high) in Minneapolis the same day? Why is hail falling then?
